Network connection
To connect to the dLAN device, your terminal
device (computer, printer, webcam etc.) must
have an RJ45 interface.
To set up a dLAN network with 500 Mbps
you need a dLAN device of type
dLAN 500 AVpro UNI for each network con-
nection.
Devices which are compatible with
"dLAN AVpro" are based on the
"HomePlug AV / IEEE 1901" stan-
dard.
You may not
use these devices in a
shared network with "UPA" de-
vices, since the "HomePlug AV" and
"UPA" processes are not compatib-
le.
If "HomePlug AV / IEEE 1901" com-
pliant dLANs and "UPA" are opera-
ted together on power lines and/or
coax lines/two-wire lines, they dis-
rupt each other and block the data
transmission.
