Introduction
Do you ever
have problems connecting your PC to your wireless router that resides in another
room of your house? Do you get bad transmissions or worried that your network
gets tapped by other wireless users next door?
Aztech Homeplug HL108E puts and end to all these worries. You
no longer need to lay unsightly ethernet cables across the main hall or from 1st
floor to 2nd floor. Homeplug HL108E converts your existing Power Line that is
already laid to be used as the "ethernet cable".
Although this is not a new technology, it has been quite a
challenge to reached the theoritical levels of 100Mbps. HL108E improves on its
previous generation and is now rated at 200Mbps.
With more and more broadband users going for IPTV services
e.g. Singtel Mio TV which delivers through ethernet, HL108E comes in handy as
there are bound to be power plugs near your AV equipment. Thus, you not longer
need to lay unsightly cables or use WIFI thatresults in drop packets due to the
weak WiFi Signal.
Before we show you our tests on the next page. let's
take a look at the specifications below.
