Powerline AV 4-Port

Network Adapter

Model: PLS300

Easily network your home using existing

electrical outlets

The Powerline AV 4-port Network Adapter lets you easily create a network using the

existing electrical outlets in your home. Now you don’t have to drill holes in walls and

climb through the attic or cellar to install network cables -- just use the wires that already

run through the building.

The Powerline AV 4-port Network Adapter connects computers, or any other wired

Ethernet device, using the HomePlug® AV network standard. Adding devices to the

network is as simple as plugging the Powerline AV 4-port Adapter into an electrical outlet,

and connecting up to four Ethernet-equipped devices to the built-in Ethernet ports.

Additional devices can be connected to the same network using additional Powerline AV

Adapters plugged into an electrical outlet anywhere in the house.

Once your computers are connected to the network, they can share resources like printers

and storage space, and all kinds of files -- video, music, digital pictures, and documents.

With up to 200Mbps data rates*, you can play virtually lag-free head-to-head network

computer games, and run applications like streaming standard or HD video, and Voice

over IP telephony. Plug your Internet connected router into a Powerline AV 4-port

Network Adapter and you’ll be able to get to the Internet from any Powerline AV attached

computer in the house.

The Linksys Powerline AV 4-port Network Adapter is the perfect solution for easy, “no new

wires”, home or office networking.

* The HomePlug AV network data rate is up to 200Mbps. Actual throughput of the PLE300 is limited to 100Mbps by the Ethernet 10/100 specication, and

will vary depending on network trac and environmental conditions such as building wiring type and routing.

Maximum performance for the Powerline AV Network Adapter is derived from the HomePlug Powerline Alliance HomePlug AV specication. Actual

performance can vary, including lower powerline network capacity and data throughput rate. Performance depends on many factors, conditions and

variables, including volume of network trac, home wiring construction, operating system used, mix of networking products used, interference from

other electrical devices, age of home wiring, wireline range and coverage as determined by wiring route or path between devices and other adverse

conditions.

Check the product package and contents for specic features supported. Specications are subject to change without notice.
