Introducing the PLA
1.1 Overview
This chapter introduces the main applications and features of your Zyxel HomeGrid (G.hn) Powerline
adapter, which is called “PLA” in this guide. G.hn is a specification for home networking device that
operates over power lines. In this User’s Guide the electrical wiring network is referred to as the
“HomeGrid network”.
You can directly plug an electrical device (such as a router or computer) into the PLA with an AC power
pass-through socket to supply power to the device.
The power plug varies depending on your region.
