Chapter 2 Connecting Mechanism
2.1 Introduction
The Powerline Adapter supports up to 200Mbps data rate. With this high speed connection rate, this
Powerline Adapter allows you to setup a high speed home network by using your home existing
electrical wiring. Simply plug this Powerline Adapter into an ordinary power outlet to extend your
Cable/xDSL broadband connection or existing LAN network to any other electrical outlet in any room of
your house.
Note that this Powerline Adapter works in pairs. You need to plug one Powerline Adapter into a power
outlet for each computer and connect the Powerline Adapter to the computer’s LAN card with an
Ethernet cable; you will also need another Powerline Adapter connected to your Cable/xDSL broadband
so as to extend your broadband connection or Internet surfing. With clean power line, the distance
between two Powerline Adapters can reach 300 meters at lease, but the actual distance may vary due to
the environment.
Section below describes the connection instructions and hardware connection mechanism.
2.2 Connection Instruction
To ensure the optimum performance of the Powerline Adapter and significantly improve the transmission
capacity of the network, we recommend that you comply with the following connection rule:
y
Plug the Powerline Adapter directly into a wall socket but not the multiple sockets.
y
To take full advantage of the filter function of the Powerline Adapter and to improve data
transmission in the network, always plug the multiple sockets into the integrated electrical socket of
the Powerline Adapter.

Chapter 5 Advanced Feature: How to Use the Pair Buttons
5.1 Pair (Secure with 128 bits-AES)
The Homeplug AV standard uses 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) to safely transmit data
between powerline adapters. For the powerline adapters to communicate with each other they all need
to use the same Network Membership Key (NMK). Otherwise, they cannot unscramble the encrypted
data sent in the powerline network.
The Pair button allows you to set up a secure powerline connection with another HomePlug AV
compliant powerline devices which also support the Pair feature.
5.2 Set Up a Secured Powerline AV Network with the Pair Button
You can connect a number of devices on a powerline network, but you can only use the Pair button on
two devices at a time.
Create a secured Powerline network using the Pair button：
Step 1. Press the Pair button of Powerline adapter A for 1 second, the Power LED will start flashing.
Step 2. Press the Pair button of Powerline adapter B for 1 second, the Power LED will start flashing.
(This must be done within 120 seconds after pressing the pair button of powerline adapter A.)
Step 3. Wait for about 60 seconds while your Powerline adapter A and B are connecting. The Power
LED on both adapters will stop flashing and become solid light when the connection is made.

Join an existing secured Powerline AV Network:
Powerline adapter A and Powerline adapter B form a HomeplugAV Network, Powerline adapter C wants
to join this network.
Step 1. Press and hold the Pair button on Powerline adapter C for 1 second.
Step 2. Press and hold the Pair button on Powerline adapter A/B for 1 second.
(This step must be taken within 120 seconds after step 1 is finished.)
Step 3. Wait for about 60 seconds while your Powerline adapters are connecting. The Power LED on
Powerline adapter A/B and C will stop flashing and become solid light when the connection is
made.
)
Note:
The sequence of Step 1 and Step 2 can be exchanged.
Leave an existing secured Powerline AV Network:
As the figure above shown, Powerline adapter A, B and C have formed a HomeplugAV Network. The
user wants to remove one device (Powerline adapter A) from this network.
Step 1. Press and hold the Pair button on Powerline adapter A for at least 10 seconds. Powerline
adapter A will reset and restart. (The Power LED of Powerline adapter A will momentarily
extinguish during resetting, flash during restarting then illuminate steadily.)
Step 2. Wait for the reset to complete.
