How the HDX101 Powerline HD Ethernet Adapter Fits
in Your Network
After you install the Powerline HD Ethernet Adapteres, your network will combine these
two elements:
•
An Ethernet portion where the devices are connected with cables.
•
A Powerline portion where the devices are connected over your electrical power
wires.
The encryption of the information you send over the Powerline helps keep it secure. This
security feature is especially relevant in settings like apartment buildings.

Prepare to Install Your Powerline HD Ethernet Adapter
The Powerline HD Ethernet Adapter is designed for easy installation. Check that these
minimum requirements are met:
•
Your Ethernet network is set up and an Ethernet port available on your network.
•
Each computer that will use the Powerline HD Ethernet Adapter must have an
Ethernet port available and configured to work on your network. Usually, the default
configuration settings (TCP/IP and DHCP) are fine
.
