Homeplug is a revolution in
connectivity, using your existing electrical outlets to create a Local Area Network,
so you can share information between several computers, share printers and
connect your private network to the Internet. You can now install a
network anywhere you have power!
The Solwise HomePlug PL-85PEW Homeplug Ethernet Adaptor provides "No New Wires" communications to any room, over the electrical
cables, at speeds of up to 85Mbps, with the added benefit of a built in 54Mbps Access Point. This makes it ideal for getting WiFi transmissions
through thick walls or other difficult areas.
The Solwise HomePlug PL-85PEW uses the Intellon 85Mbps Turbo chipset which means this adapter is compatible with the rest of the Solwise range. The built-in Wireless Access
Point uses the Infineon Wildpass Chipset - this solution transforms your home mains circuit into a networking infrastructure and a WLAN connection.
The Solwise HomePlug PL-85PEW is ideal for anyone who wants to extend their wireless signal coverage for Internet access or to make an internal network.
Built-in Quality of Service (QOS) for HomePlug also provides the necessary bandwidth for multimedia payloads including Broadband TV (IPTV), higher
data rate broadband sharing, Online-Gaming, VoIP Calls, Wireless LANs coverage, Audio-Video transmission across the network as well as Network camera connectivity.
The Solwise HomePlug PL-85PEW is easy to install and use. It plugs straight in to any existing wall electrical socket while having a low power consumption. It
comes with 56 bit DES encryption ensuring that your network communication is free from eavesdroppers and hackers. The AutoMDI/MDIX functionality also
simplifies and ensures a hassle free installation.
The antenna is removable - Reverse SMA Connector - and can be replaced with an antenna of higher gain if necessary.
