TRENDnet's Powerline 500 AV2 Adapter, model TPL-408E, uses an electrical outlet to create a Powerline network. No CD installation required—encrypted TRENDnet adapters auto-connect out of the box. Two adapters are needs to start a network. Connect one adapter to a router and plug in another adapter on your electrical system for instant internet access.
* Maximum of 8 adapters (nodes) recommended for streaming video across your network** 600 Mbps is the maximum physical Powerline data rate. Data throughput may vary by circuit wire condition overheads.*** Powerline communication works only single area electric circuit. (Usually controlled by a single power breaker.)
