DescriptionIOGEAR's 85 Mbps Powerline Networking Kit allows you to network your home computers, networking devices and gaming devices through the most pervasive medium in your house - the electric power lines - and share Internet connections, printers, transfer files, play games, and more. This kit can be used to network two computers with a 10/100Base-T adapter through power lines. Another application is to extend a Wi-Fi network to the furthest part of the house or facility by using power lines.
The IOGEAR's 85 Mbps Powerline Networking Kit is a very simple and convenient way to circumvent Wi-Fi dead spots. It can also be used to link network ready devices such as gaming consoles and a Broadband router through power line, allowing you to play online games without having to worry about signal drops and connection lag. In addition, it can be used to connect your Slingbox or DVR to the Internet so you can watch your TV on the road. This kit offers up to 85 Mbps bandwidth and is backward compatible with HomePlug 1.0 specification, and is less prone to interference. Installation requires only a 10/100Base-connection on the computer or the device. By offering 56-bit DES encryption, it is also much more secure than other home networking technologies such as Wi-Fi connection.
