I recently moved into a new house, which came equipped with Lennar’s smart home upgrades. Unfortunately, not all of the Ethernet lines were functioning, so I was looking for alternatives to wifi (which gets overloaded from all of the devices in our household). So I was thrilled when I saw the Zyxel Powerline Gigabit Ethernet adapter, which seems to solve my networking dilemma. A powerline adapter turns existing electrical wiring into a wired-like network, so it’s easy to connect to a stable Internet wherever there’s a power outlet.
The Zyxel adapter (PLA6456) transforms the way homes are networked with new G.hn technology. It transforms power outlets into a fast network, while extending Internet access throughout the house. Capable of delivering up to 2400 Mbps, it is perfect for 8K streaming and provides lag-free online gaming experience. The Zyxel PLA6456 with G.hn technology delivers maximum data transfer rate and stability for home networking
Setup is super easy … it takes less than one minute: Plug in two adapters (included) to any electrical outlets in your home and then instantly gain a network connection without having to run physical wires. Push the sync button on both PLA6456 to quickly and securely get a AES 128-bit encrypted network going through your electrical outlets. It’s pretty amazing and works like a charm.
A pass-through outlet allows you to keep your existing powered devices connected. The embedded noise filter eliminates electrical signal noise to further improve the electrical outlet’s network quality.
Equipped with a Gigabit Ethernet port, the Zyxel PLA6456 allows you to connect Ethernet enabled devices at Gigabit speeds. It’s perfect for streaming 8K or 4K video on smart TVs.
