This Is FRITZ!Powerline 1000E
This quick introduction shows you the possibilities for deploying and operating
FRITZ!Powerline 1000E.
With FRITZ!Powerline 1000E you can transmit data over the electrical wiring in your
household at gigabit speeds. Over this connection your network devices can conve-
niently exchange even broadband-intensive data, and can access your home network
and share its connection to your Internet router.
To launch operation, insert the FRITZ!Powerline devices in any outlets and connect
them with your FRITZ!Box, your computer and other network devices – that's all.
With the AVM FRITZ!Powerline software you manage your powerline network and can
view detailed information about connections.
FRITZ!Powerline 1000E Set, the variant with two devices, is preconfi gured and
encrypted ex works and can be used immediately.
FRITZ!Powerline 1000E as an individual device can be integrated into existing power-
line networks in just a few steps.
Have fun with your FRITZ!Powerline 1000E!

Requirements for Gigabit Data Rates
A modern circuit has 3 wires: the phase (L), the neutral (N) and the protective (PE).
Many older circuits have only two wires, the phase (L) and the neutral (PEN), which
takes on the task of the protective wire. For high data rates with gigabit speeds
FRITZ!Powerline 1000E deploys MIMO technology, which requires a circuit with 3 wires
and protective contact sockets. Using MIMO FRITZ!Powerline 1000E can compose an
additional wire pair for data transmission on the phase and the protective wires, so
that the transmission potential is 60 - 80% higher than in a conventional powerline
connection. FRITZ!Powerline 1000E can also be deployed in circuits with 2 wires, but
its complete potential cannot be exploited in these circuits.
