TRENDnet Introduces the Powerline 500 AV Adapter Dylan Duarte July 24, 2013 Press Release TRENDnet has released a variety of wired and wireless networking hardware over the years, but their latest product, the Powerline 500 AV Adapter, may make getting online easier than ever by using the existing power lines in your home to connect media players, smart televisions, game consoles, and more to the Internet. You’ll need two adapters to get everything started. Plug one into an electrical socket and then plug your router into that adapter. Then plug another adapter into a socket near your television or whatever device you want to get online. That adapter can hold up to four Ethernet cables and will use a secure signal pushed through the electrical system to take all four devices online. It’s a clever idea and could be very useful to those who have Internet-capable devices all around the house, but don’t want to string cables throughout their home or rely on a fading wireless signal. The adapters can be purchased for $59.99 each.

Network one adapter to a router, then plug another adapter into any outlet on the same electrical system for instant high speed network access.
