Create a Wall-To-Wall Home Network, Instantly.
PowerLine technology transmits data along the wiring of a building’s existing electrical system, providing a secure and reliable broadband connection to places impossible to reach with a wireless signal. Use your PowerLine AV 500 4-Port Gigabit Switch to extend your PowerLine network and deliver performance up to 500Mbps connectivity exactly where you need it. Just connect your Internet source device to any PowerLine Adapter, plug the PowerLine AV 500 4-Port Gigabit Switch into any electrical outlet, and connect up to 4 high-performance devices to the Switch. Power your entertainment center and keep your home clean and cable-free. PowerLine is the ideal networking solution for homes or small offices where concrete walls, successive floors in multi-storied buildings, or other architectural impediments can significantly weaken wireless coverage and create dead spots.

Get Wireless Freedom and Wired Reliability.
Because a PowerLine Network is hard-wired, there is no external ‘ambient’ interference common to even the most powerful wireless systems. PowerLine network technology is HomePlug AV compliant and works across phases in your building’s electrical box to transmit data reliably by intelligently adapting to the strongest signal channels. Data and electricity transmit at very different frequencies, so there’s never a problem of electrical interference or shorting with a PowerLine device.

Setup? PowerLine is Plug and Play. And That’s It.
Extending your PowerLine network to your favorite high-performance devices with a PowerLine AV 500 4-Port Gigabit Switch is a cinch. Just plug it in to any conventional power outlet and D-Link’s ‘Simple Connect’ button will establish a 128-bit security encrypted connection with your existing PowerLine network in a flash. With a PowerLine AV 500 4-Port Gigabit Switch there are no cables to run, holes to drill or wireless signals to configure – extending your existing PowerLine network is as easy as plug and play.

Create An Ultra-Secure Home Network.
The PowerLine AV 500 4-Port Gigabit Switch protects your network with 128-bit AES data security encryption – the same technology used in E-commerce or online banking. Create your own network name and password or put it at the tip of your fingers with ‘Push Button Security’ standard on every PowerLine device. With hassle-free plug and play installation, and advanced security the PowerLine AV 500 4-Port Gigabit Switch is not only one of the fastest networking solutions available, it’s also one of the safest.

Get Ready for the Future - IPV6 Equipped
With the growing number of Internet-enabled applications requiring IP addresses, the supply of IP addresses under the current Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) system has already been exhausted. The IPv6 protocol solves this network addressing exhaustion by creating more IP addresses, but migration from IPv4 to IPv6 is not necessarily automatic. No worries - This D-Link product is IPv6 Certified and ready for the future.
