Introduction
The HomePlug 8500E uses the power cables already provided inside buildings to
transmit signals in order to provide a reliable network of computers and network
equipment. Using a maximum transmission speed of 85 Mbps, the HomePlug 8500E
can communicate sophisticated applications, such as Internet telephony, high
resolution video applications and Internet, reliably and simultaneously.
The HomePlug technology modulates computer data so that it can be transmitted
from point−to−point via the power lines. Using this technology, two computers have a
virtual Ethernet connection without them actually being physically connected to each
other.
The HomePlug 8500E implements No New Wires
via any power line at a speed of up to 85 Mbps. It has 3 indicator lamps (LEDs) and a
network (Ethernet) port. The LEDs serve to indicate the connection status as well as
signalling problems concerning system malfunction. The Ethernet port is used to
connect the HomePlug 8500E to the network. The HomePlug 8500E is equipped with
a standard power plug for use with any 100 − 240 V power socket.
Networking computers has the following advantages:
1. Shared access to centrally stored data.
2. Shared access to all the printers in the network.
3. Shared use of an Internet connection.
4. Multi−user games over the network.
