Ethernet Port
Powerline adapters use an Ethernet port to convert a standard electrical wall outlet into a high-speed wired network
connection. You can use the wired network connection to bring Internet connectivity to any device with an Ethernet
port, such as a computer, game console, Blu-ray player, smart TV, HD set-top box, or network DVR.
