Chapter 1 – Introduction
The HNP6L-ET is a combination HomePlug Ethernet Adapter and Home Networking Protector
providing total surge protection for the computer system including its peripherals such as
modems, scanners, monitors, printers and routers. The HNP6L-ET
also incorporates an Ethernet
HomePlug® circuit which provides data networking over existing AC wiring. Traditional surge
protectors interfere with data transmitted over AC wiring utilizing HomePlug® technology.
The HNX-ET is an 85 Mbps High Speed HomePlug Ethernet Bridge which operates on the
HomePlug Powerline Specification 1.0 standard. The HNX-ET allows multiple home desktops
and notebooks to be networked to share Internet connections, printers, files, and play games
without additional wiring. The installation of the HNX-ET only requires that a 10/100Mbps
network adapter is installed on the computer.
Connecting multiple computing devices together to establish a Local Area Network is as simple
as 1-2-3 with the HNP6L-ET and HNX-ET
devices. Whether you are connecting two computers
together or extending your existing network, the HNP6L-ET and HNX-ET comes with drivers
for the most popular operating systems: Windows 98SE, 2000, ME, XP, and Vista.
All devices are designed and manufactured to meet’s high quality standards and industry orga-
nizations’ (i.e. HomePlug Powerline Alliance, IEEE, FCC, and UL) rigorous specifications and
world-class quality standards.
Computer networking in the office or at home has the following advantages:
1. Share centrally stored data
2. Share one printer
3. Multi-access to one Internet connection
4. Multi-user games over the network.
