2.3 What does the dLAN adapter 

have to offer?

The dLAN 200 AVmini offers a transfer rate of up to
200 Mbps which makes it ideal for high requirements,
such as HDTV streaming, Internet telephony and fast
Internet. When connected to an electrical outlet, it
changes the home-based electrical system in no time
into a fast network with high data throughput. And all
of that with optimum transfer and maximum data se-
curity using the powerful 128-bit AES encryption. In
addition, the patented power saving mode, which co-
mes standard, automatically uses more than 50% less
power.

Simply press the encryption button on the
dLAN 200 AVmini or use the dLAN configuration
wizard to set up custom encryption for your network.
Whether in the office or at home—devices such as mo-
dem, router, set-top box or the computer can be con-
nected with the dLAN 200 AVmini using the available
Ethernet interface. On top of that, the range of 300
meters creates a high degree of flexibility.

2.4 Sample applications

This chapter contains examples for possible network
