TORRANCE, Calif. – January 5, 2015 – TRENDnet, a best-in-class wired and wireless networking hardware brand, today announces a family of extreme performance Powerline 1200 solutions. The Powerline 1200 AV2 Adapter Kit, model TPL-420E2K, and Powerline 1200 AV2 Adapter Kit with Built-in Outlet, model TPL-421E2K, mark new performance thresholds for Powerline 1200 products.

TRENDnet's Powerline 1200 solutions create an extreme performance Powerline 1200 network using an existing electrical system. Installation couldn't be easier—adapters auto-connect (on the same electrical system) out of the box over a pre-encrypted Powerline networking signal. Plug in the first adapter and network it to an existing router. Plug in other adapters on the same electrical system for instant extreme Powerline 1200 networking.

Powerline MIMO technology uses all three electrical wires (live, neutral, and ground wires) to achieve ground breaking networking throughput speeds and to further expand networking coverage. A Gigabit port, on both models, extends high performance networking to the respective connected device. TRENDnet adapters connect over electrical lines for homes up to 5,000 square feet (465 sq. m) or over an electrical power line for a linear distance of up to 300 meters (980 ft.).

“The continued explosion of connected devices in the home and the proliferation of streaming HD video bolster a need for high speed networking devices,” stated Zak Wood, global marketing director for TRENDnet. “TRENDnet's Powerline 1200 solutions rival throughput speeds of the latest WiFi AC devices and are known for their signal stability.”
