steps. The intelligent HomePlug AV technology allows data to be transferred using your house’s
power lines, so you don’t need to lay any new network cables. You don’t even have to give up an
electrical socket since the Hama Socket 600 Mbps Powerline adapter offers an integrated socket
for connecting your terminal devices or power strips as usual. The integrated mains filter signifi-
cantly improves data transfers in your home network.
The fast transfer rate of up to 600 Mbps turns every bandwidth-intensive internet application
