The PowerLine HD Ethernet Adapter is
designed for quick, easy installation.
10/100M Fast Ethernet Port
Using the included Ethernet cable,
connect the adapter to a network router,
switch or other Ethernet-enabled device.
NOTE: The Ethernet port on the adapter
supports 10/100M Auto-MDI/MDIX, so you can
use a straight-through or a crossover Ethernet
cable when connecting to another Ethernet-enabled device.
AC Power Plug
Plug the device directly into an AC power outlet. Do
not connect the PowerLine adapter to a power strip,
extension cord or surge protector, as this may prevent
it from working properly or degrade the network
performance.
Quick Setup Button
This front-panel button provides a quick option for
joining an adapter to an established PowerLine network.
1. Press and hold the Quick Setup button until all LEDs are off (this may
take more than 10 seconds). The adapter will reset the network ID
setting and generate a random network ID. NOTE: Always reset the
network ID before pairing the adapter with other PowerLine devices.
2. To join a new unit to the network, press the Quick Setup button on any
adapter currently in the network and — within 3 seconds — press the
Quick Setup button on the new adapter. A blinking Power LED indicates
the pairing is in progress; a lighted Power LED means the unit is paired.
