The Solwise HomePlug 500AV adapters operate on the HomePlug Powerline AV Specification standard allowing you to use the 500AV adapters on your existing 200AV network.
The PL-500AV uses the Atheros (Intellon) AR7400 chipset which is optimised for streaming high definition media applications. The AR7400 includes a faster processor, high speed interfaces and an analog front end (AFE). With these added high performance abilities, the PL-500AV is perfect for the ultra-high speed High Definition entertainment network in your home. It is also perfect for areas that are hard to reach by wireless connections.
With a plug and play installation, you can easily combine all of your AV electronics together and instantly enjoy your Entertainment Center from virtually any room in your home. Combined with a broadband DSL/Cable connection, every room with electrical power outlets will have easy access to high-speed Internet connection.
As with all our HomePlug AV products, this PL-500AV is equipped with 128-bit AES security encryption. Combining the private home power grid and the 128-bit AES security encryption, this PL-500AV is extremely secure compared to other technologies such as WiFi.
Remember, you will need at least two HomePlug devices to form a HomePlug connection. More HomePlug AV/Gig devices can be added to further share your network.
