D-Link, one of the world’s largest suppliers of networking products has introduced the DHP-P308AV, a new Powerline AV+ mini adapter with passthrough function. The Powerline AV+ passthrough mini adapter uses a home’s existing electrical wiring to extend an Internet connection while turning every power outlet into a high speed network connection. Compliant with the HomePlug AV standard, it provides network access to computers, game consoles, televisions, and any other Internet-enabled devices throughout a home.
The built-in passthrough design also enables owners to continue using their electrical socket by plugging another device into the integrated electrical outlet. The passthrough socket features noise filtering which helps prevent the electrical device plugged into the socket from affecting Powerline connection and performance.
The DHP-P308AV is capable of delivering data transfer rates at speeds of up to 500 Mbps – faster than regular HomePlug AV products. This rapid transmission speed makes it ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications, guaranteeing smooth HD video streaming, VoIP phone calls, and lag-free online gaming experiences. Quality of Service (QoS) support prioritizes multimedia traffic over other types of traffic on your network connection, ensuring faster transmission.
The D-Link DHP-P308AV implements 128-bit AES data encryption at the push of a button to protect your network from any intruders. With hassle-free plug and play installation, it is an ideal solution to create a wall-to-wall home network. It also enables owners to continue using their electrical socket by plugging another device into the integrated electrical outlet.
During periods of inactivity, the DHP-P308AV will go into sleep mode to save power, reducing power usage by more than 50%, allowing you to save energy automatically without sacrificing on performance.
The DHP-P308AV, Powerline AV+ passthrough mini adapter will be available in Q3 2013.
