3.3    FAQ

1. Is the Corinex Powerline Ethernet Wall Mount still working if there is an electricity 

blackout?  And  will  it  resume  the  transmission  automatically  after  the  power 
comes back?

Corinex  Powerline  Ethernet  Wall  Mounts  are  operational,  when  the  connected 
computers are rebooted and the power is back on.

2. Once the electricity is on after blackout, is the Powerline Ethernet Wall Mount put 

into operation “automatically”?

Yes, as soon as the computers are running again. If there is a problem, unplug the 
adapter and plug it back into the connection slot.

3.  As  the  recommended  transmission  range  of  powerline  devices  is  around  200 

meters, what happens when the distance is over say 400 meters?

We  recommend  to  try  the  line  for  functionality  and  performance,  before  starting 
operations.

4.  Is  there  any  cross  talk  or  interference  issue  when  using  Corinex  Powerline 

Ethernet Wall Mounts?

Within  a  PC  or  Laptop  we  don’t  see  any  interference  with  any  other  card  and/or 
system.  OFDM  is  a  technology,  which  reduces  any  influence  coming  from  another 
device,  which  is  connected  to  the  electric  power  network.  The  Corinex  powerline 
devices have also been FCC and CE approved.

5.  In  case  the  PCs  are  at  different  floors  of  the  same  building,  can  they  use  the 

powerline device for data transmission? And how does it work?

Powerline device works on the same physical line. If the electric wires between the two 
outlets used for communications in this case are connected with each other and the 
maximum distance is about 200m, it works fine.
