To set up a devolo Magic network, you need at least two
devolo Magic devices. For technical reasons, devices
from the devolo Magic series are not compatible with
dLAN devices.

eration of tried-and-tested Powerline technology:
쎲
Speed and stability – thanks to consistent data transmis-
sion speed at up to 2400 Mbps over distances of up to
500 meters , the devolo Magic 2 LAN promises entertain-
ment at the highest level.
쎲
Security – with 128-bit AES Powerline encryption
쎲
Energy-efficiency – the integrated PowerSave mode cuts
energy consumption automatically

A devolo Magic 2 LAN transforms any electrical socket in
your household electrical wiring into a Gigabit LAN Internet
access point.
쎲
Its integrated electrical socket can be used (like a normal
wall socket) to supply power to an additional network device
or a power strip.

The Gigabit LAN port on the devolo Magic 2 LAN lets you
connect a stationary network device – such as a game con-
sole, television or media receiver – to your Internet access
point over the Powerline network (e.g. Internet router).
