Chapter 3: Overlapping Powerline Networks
It is possible to create multiple powerline networks on the same electrical system
separated and grouped by different network names/security keys. The powerline
networks will work and communicate independently of each other which can provide
security between different groups of powerline adapters. For example, if you have five
powerline adapters (Adapter A, Adapter B, Adapter C, Adapter D, Adapter E), you can
group Adapters A,B, and C together on one powerline network and group Adapters D and
E on a different powerline network. Each group will use a different network
name/security key.
Note: It is recommended that only a maximum of up to 4 powerline networks can be created per
electrical system. Any additional powerline networks above the recommended result in significant
degradation in powerline performance.
