TRENDnet's WiFi Everywhere™ Powerline 1200 AV2 Wireless Kit, model TPL-430APK, uses an electrical outlet to create or expand a wireless network. Easily install the included TRENDnet Powerline adapters to create a high-speed powerline network. Connect the TPL-421E to the router and plug the TPL-430AP into a power outlet in another room where WiFi connectivity is needed. The WiFi Clone button conveniently copies your existing wireless network settings to the TPL-430AP for faster network integration.

Two TRENDnet Powerline adapters are plugged into electrical outlets. One adapter has two antennas and several indicator lights, while the other is connected to a router with a cable. The adapters automatically connect to each other once plugged in, as indicated by the dotted line labeled Auto connect.

Easy Installation

Simply plug in TRENDnet Powerline adapters and they will auto-connect to each other right out of the box.

A house with three Powerline adapters plugged into electrical outlets in different rooms. Each adapter emits WiFi signals, indicating wireless connectivity. One adapter connects to a router via an Ethernet cable, while the other two connect wirelessly, using Powerline technology to extend the network through the electrical wiring.

WiFi Everywhere™

By combining wireless and Powerline technology you can enjoy wireless connectivity from any power outlet in your household.

* Maximum wireless signal rates are referenced from IEEE 802.11 theoretical specifications. Actual data throughput and coverage will vary depending on interference, network traffic, building materials and other conditions.
** 1200 Mbps is the maximum physical Powerline data rate. Data throughput may vary by circuit wire condition. Maximum of 8 adapters (nodes) recommended for streaming video across your network.
*** Powerline networking is limited to the same electrical system. Power strips, GFCI outlets, and AFCI circuit breakers may degrade Powerline signals.
