Features
Product Overview
The Powerline 500 AV Nano Adapter with Built-In Outlet, model TPL-407E, uses existing
electrical lines to create a secure high speed network. Two adapters are needed to start
a network. Connect one adapter to your router and plug another adapter into an outlet
on your electrical system for instant high speed network access.
The compact form factor saves space and offers an additional electrical outlet, built into
the front of the housing to power computers and other devices. A noise filter maintains
optimum connection speeds when devices such as computers, televisions, and gaming
consoles create electrical background noise.
This adapter automatically connects to other TRENDnet Powerline AV adapters with no
installation required —TRENDnet recommends pressing the ‘Sync’ button to
automatically change default encryption keys. Use up to 8 adapters to network devices
in different rooms without running new cabling. Power Save mode reduces power
consumption by up to 80%. Quality of Service technology prioritizes video, audio, and
online gaming. LED displays convey device status for easy troubleshooting. Advanced
128-bit AES encryption secures your network. This adapter is ideal for use in buildings
that interfere with wireless networking signals.

Application Diagram
Diagram Explanation:
The first Powerline unit (on right) is networked to a router which is in turn connected to
a modem (typically from your Internet Service Provider (ISP)) which provides Internet
connectivity. A second Powerline unit (on left) is plugged into a wall power outlet near a
media center and is connected to a network game console and another network
enabled media device such as a network enabled media player to provide Internet
connectivity. The extra built-in outlet on each Powerline unit allows for powered devices
(such as router, TV, or network enabled media device) to be plugged in or through an
additional power strip leaving the other power outlet available for use. Using the extra
built-in outlet also provides noise filtering capabilities to help boost your powerline
connectivity and performance.

Using the Sync button
Securing your Powerline Network
Change your default encryption key using the Sync button
Powerline networks consist of two or more Powerline devices connected together using
the same encryption key. TRENDnet Powerline adapters automatically connect to each
other over a secure encrypted signal and share the same encryption key (Default
encryption key: HomePlugAV).
The physical Sync button on the Powerline adapter provides an easy method of
changing the default encryption key. The Sync button generates a random encryption
key for your Powerline network. To create a customized encryption key, see “Using the
In order for your Powerline devices to connect to the same Powerline network, the
same encryption key must be assigned to all Powerline devices in that network.
Powerline devices that are not assigned the same encryption key will not be able to
connect to the Powerline network.
Note: The default encryption key assigned to TRENDnet Powerline adapters is
HomePlugAV. Before changing the default encryption, please ensure that your
Powerline adapters are already installed and connected using the default encryption key.
For additional security, TRENDnet recommends changing adapter default encryption key
to prevent a neighbor with a Powerline adapter and the same default encryption key
from gaining access to your network.
Important Note: When using the Sync Button to change the default encryption key, it is
highly recommended to plug the adapters into nearby outlets first and follow the Sync
button procedure before installing the adapters in the desired locations.
Note: After the default encryption key has been changed and the Powerline adapters
have been connected using a new encryption key, the Powerline adapters will retain
their security settings when they are unplugged and moved to a new location. No
additional reconfiguration of the Powerline adapters is needed after the default
encryption has been changed.
There are two methods to change the default encryption key:
•
Use the physical Sync button on your Powerline adapter to generate a random
****Recommended method****
OR
•
Create a customized encryption key for your Powerline network using the

•
Power-cycle the Powerline adapters by disconnecting them from their power
outlets for 15 seconds and then reconnect them.
If the Powerline (PL) LED is red, try plugging the Powerline adapter into another
available power outlet. The quality of the connection may be better in a
different power outlet.
If you are having issues connecting the Powerline adapters after changing the
encryption key using the Sync button or Powerline utility, reset the Powerline
adapters to defaults using the physical Reset button.
Using a pin or paperclip; press and hold the Reset button for 1 second on each
Powerline adapter. All LEDs will turn off then turn back on. This will reset the
Powerline adapters to their default settings. The default encryption key is
HomePlugAV.
Troubleshooting
Please reference the items below if you continue to experience difficulty with installing
and using your Powerline adapters.
•
•
•
Do not plug the Powerline adapters into a power strip. Make sure to plug the
adapters directly into a power outlet and not through power strip. Using
adapters through a power strip may negatively affect Powerline connectivity
and performance.
•
•
The Powerline adapters can provide better connectivity and performance when
plugged directly into a power outlet. Connecting the Powerline adapters to a
power strip or surge protector may degrade or block Powerline signals.
Avoid using the Powerline adapters on GFI protected outlets and electrical
systems with AFCI circuit breakers. They may degrade or block Powerline
signals.
•
•
The Powerline adapters should not be used in areas with excessive heat.
Florescent and incandescent lighting can generate significant Powerline
interference.
•
If your building has more than one circuit breaker box, the Powerline adapter
may not be able to establish connectivity between them. In this case, connect a
Powerline adapter into a power outlet located on each of the circuit breaker
boxes. Then connect an Ethernet cable between the Powerline adapters to
bridge the two circuits together.
In addition to this User’s Guide, you can find help below:
•
•
(documentation, downloads, FAQs, how to contact technical support)
•
•
Make sure to use the built-in power outlet for powered devices to filter out
noise sources that may affect Powerline connectivity and performance.
Autorun CD (Quick Installation Guide)
Do not use the Sync button for more than 2 Powerline adapters to connect
simultaneously. Wait for each Powerline adapter to connect to your Powerline
network one at a time before connecting the next adapter. Using more than
one adapter to Sync simultaneously may cause some of your adapters not to
Sync and establish connection to your Powerline network.

TRENDnet User’s Guide
Appendix
Overlapping Powerline networks
It is possible to create multiple Powerline networks on the same electrical system
separated and grouped by different network encryption keys. The Powerline networks
will work and communicate independently of each other which can provide security
between different groups of Powerline adapters. For example, if you have five
powerline adapters (Adapter A, Adapter B, Adapter C, Adapter D, Adapter E), you can
group Adapters A,B, and C together on one powerline network and group Adapters D
and E on a different Powerline network. Each group will use a different encryption key.
Note: It is recommended that only a maximum of up to 4 Powerline networks can be
created per electrical system. Any additional Powerline networks above the
recommended may result in significant degradation in Powerline performance.
