1 Preface
The dLAN 200 AV USB extender makes it easy to
share the use of USB devices intelligently, as this
adapter is the first product to enable terminal devic-
es with USB connection to be connected via the
powerline. The dLAN 200 AV USB extender is the
ideal solution if USB cables are simply not long
enough – dLAN works up to 300 metres. Every pow-
er outlet in the house becomes a USB port. It is as
easy as child's play to connect USB products such as
hard drives or (multifunctional) printers to the
dLAN 200 AV USB extender. This saves space and
money: one printer is enough for the whole family,
and the USB hard drive with music, photos, movies
and documents becomes the centralised data store
for all.
To ensure high security of your home network, the
dLAN 200 AV USB extender has an encryption but-
ton. This ensures an encrypted connection to the
network at the touch of a button.
