Powerline 500 AV Nano Adapter Kit

TPL-406E2K (Version v1.0R)

  • Includes two TPL-406E adapters
  • Networking with electrical outlets
  • Compact form factor saves space
  • Up to 80% power savings
  • Use one unit to transmit, and up to 7 additional TPL-406Es to receive a network signal*

The Powerline 500 AV Nano Adapter Kit, model TPL-406E2K, uses an electrical outlet to create a secure high speed network. Connect the first adapter to your network and plug the second adapter into an outlet on your electrical system for instant high speed network access. The compact form factor saves space around crowded electrical outlets. 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 (QoS) 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.

* Maximum of 8 adapters (nodes) recommended for streaming video across your network.
** 500Mbps is the maximum theoretical Powerline data rate. Actual throughput will vary depending on environment. Networked Powerline devices need to be plugged into power outlets that are on the same electrical system. GFCI outlets and AFCI circuit breakers may degrade Powerline network signals.
