AV1000 Gigabit Powerline Adapter
A6: Up to 300m can be reached with least interference. However
transmission rate decreases gradually beyond 100m.
Q7: What main advantages does a powerline adapter have over a wireless
device?
A7: The powerline adapter is a plug-and-play device, requiring no
configuration. While, wireless signal not only is easily to be affected
adversely by obstacles like walls and ceilings but also delivers harmful
electromagnetic wave.
Q8: Can powerline devices of different brands communicate with each other?
A8: Yes. This Tenda powerline adapter complies with HomePlugAV standard
and thus can communicate with other manufacturers' HomePlugAV-
compliant powerline devices.
Q9: Will the powerline network get disconnected upon blackout?
A9: Yes. The powerline network delivers data over electric wiring via
electricity. Without presence of electricity, data transmission by powerline
adapters is impossible.
Q10: Would it be dangerous to use the powerline adapter in a thunderstorm?
A10: The adapter's internal thunder-/lightning-proof facility protects PC or
other devices connected from any potential and harmful thunder or lightning
attacks even when the building where the adapter lies is unfortunately
thunderstorm-struck.
