The new 500 Mbps Powerline AV Adapter Kit with Bonus Outlet creates a secure high-speed building-wide network from any electrical outlet.
Networking hardware innovator TRENDnet announced the general availability this week of its new 500 Mbps Powerline AV Adapter Kit with Bonus Outlet (Model TPL-402E2K).
The TRENDnet kit comes with two 500 Mbps adapters that feature a built in electrical outlet and embedded power saving technology. The kit creates a secure high-speed building-wide network from any electrical outlet.
The idea of the kits is to provide SMBs with network access without losing the use of an outlet when the adapter is plugged in. Simply connect one adapter to the network and plug the second adapter into any outlet on an electrical system for instant high-speed network access.
Adapters connect quickly using a one-touch connect button. Up to sixteen Powerline adapters can be installed in different rooms for building-wide networking.
Power saving technology reduces power consumption by up to 70 percent in standby mode, according to TRENDnet, “resulting in significant power savings as this product is always plugged in,” the company states in a press release submitted to Channel Pro-SMB.
“Products such as coffee makers, washing machines, microwaves, vacuums, and other household appliances create electrical power spikes. An advanced electrical noise filter maintains high performance signal strength, thereby significantly boosting performance,” the company adds.
LED displays convey device status for easy power management and troubleshooting.
The 500 Mbps Powerline AV Adapter Kit with Bonus Outlet (Model TPL-402E2K) comes with a three-year limited warranty and is currently shipping to all online and retail partners. The MSRP for the TPL-402E2K is $179.99.
