Homeplug
1 Introduction
The homeplug is an excellent solution that can be used to extend your network. You can use this homeplug
Ethernet Bridge Adapter to link multiple locations without the need to run an Ethernet cable, at home or in a
small office building. Combined with a broadband DSL/cable connection, every room with electrical power
outlets will have easy access to a high-speed internet connection. Your house will have a power line network
starting with just two plugs.
The adapter operates on the homeplug AV Standard and Mediaxtream
specification, providing up to
1 Gigabit per second bandwidth over existing home AC wiring. The added bandwidth is perfect for ultra-high
speed HD entertainment networks in homes as well as for areas that are hard to reach by wireless
connection.
Since the home powerline is the most pervasive medium in households with multiple outlets in every room,
the plug allows multiple network compatible entertainment systems and home desktop/notebooks to be
networked, to share internet connections, printers, files, and play games without any additional wiring. The
plug is also compatible with any device, including Windows
®
, Mac
®
, and UNIX
®
machines.
