Powerline PassThru Adapter The following illustration shows a Powerline network with one Powerline device in Room 1 and a second Powerline device in Room 2. Room 1 Room 2 Figure 6. A Powerline network with two Powerline PassThru adapters To form a Powerline network, you need at least two compatible Powerline devices. For best performance, follow these guidelines when you plan the location of your Powerline devices: • Use an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch to avoid accidentally turning off the power to the outlet. • Avoid plugging Powerline products into electrical outlets that are located near appliances that consume a lot of power, such as washers, dryers, or refrigerators. Interference from these appliances might prevent Powerline products from working correctly or reduce Powerline network performance. • Do not plug Powerline products into a power strip, extension cord, or surge protector. Connecting a Powerline product to one of these devices might prevent the product from working correctly or reduce Powerline network performance. Getting Started 13
