1.1 Thank you for placing your

trust in this devolo product.

The dLAN 500 AVpro UNI is a network device that

can use the existing wiring in place at the location of

use (power lines, telephone lines, two-wire lines, TV/

satellite coax cable) as transmission lines for a dLAN

network for fast data communication. This allows

you to implement applications such as streaming

HDTV, Internet telephony and high-speed Internet

with great reliability. After successful installation,

the dLAN network behaves like a standard LAN, but

is faster than conventional Fast Ethernet.

The dLAN 500 AVpro UNI supports a throughput of

up to 500 Mbps in the network and offers maximum

data security thanks to its powerful encryption.

1.1.1 About this manual

Chapter 2 of this manual gives you a brief introduction

to the basics of dLAN.

Chapter 3 tells you how to successfully start using the

dLAN 500 AVpro UNI. Chapter 4 gives you instruc-

tions for networking and some application examples

for using the dLAN 500 AVpro UNI efficiently.

In Chapter 5, you will find safety notes and our war-

ranty terms.

The included product CD includes documentation such

as the CE declaration for the product and the product

sheet with the technical data of the

dLAN 500 AVpro UNI.

Use the dLAN 500 AVpro UNI accor-

ding to its intended use to reliably

prevent damage to the device and

to other devices:

The intended use of the

dLAN 500 AVpro UNI is connection to the

dLAN network.

The intended use of the mains adapter for

the dLAN 500 AVpro UNI is supplying power

to the dLAN 500 AVpro UNI.

2 Introduction

2.1 What exactly is dLAN?

With dLAN (direct Local Area Network), the existing

lines (for example mains supply, telephone cable, two-

wire, TV coax cable) in the building are used directly for

transferring data between various computers and oth-

er network components. For this purpose, these com-

puters and other network components are

interconnected via these lines by means of dLAN-com-

patible devices. For example, if the dLAN is implement-

ed via power lines, each mains socket becomes a

"network socket".

The data to be transmitted via the dLAN is modulated

in a dLAN device for its transmission and sent as a

complex modulated signal via the wires. In doing so,

by using state-of-the-art technology, devolo dLAN

products guarantee that there can be no interference

between the dLAN and the other applications on the

lines they use. The implemented networking via dLAN

is very fast and secure. The data to be transmitted is

also encrypted using a password, reliably eliminating

the possibility of interception.

2.2 What does the

dLAN 500 AVpro UNI offer you?

The dLAN 500 AVpro UNI supports a data transfer

rate of 500 Mbps via dLAN.

You can make the dLAN connection in the way

that best suits your application: via the power line

(PLC) using the mains adapter provided, via coax

lines (F-jack) and two-wire lines (choice of spring

terminals or RJ11 jack). The switch between PLC

coax/two-wire is made on a recessed pushbutton

on the rear side of the housing.

It provides an Ethernet switch with four

1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet interfaces (RJ45,

shielded), one of which supports PoE (in accord-

ance with 802.3af, 15.4 watts output power).

Power is supplied to the dLAN 500 AVpro UNI via

the external mains adapter, which also enables

smooth transmission of the modulated data from

and to the power line.

The dLAN 500 AVpro UNI is provided with the

dLAN AVpro manager dLAN configuration tool,

which enables reliable, fast and convenient inte-

gration of the dLAN 500 AVpro UNI into dLAN

networks with different architecture ('Peer-to-

Peer' or 'MDU').

8 Introduction

devolo dLAN 500 AVpro UNI

2.3 The two dLAN modes

2.3.1 dLAN Peer-to-Peer

If the dLAN is configured as a 'Peer-to-Peer' network

('P2P'), all dLAN devices within it are equal to each

other. The connected network nodes can communicate

with one another freely and directly.

The dLAN device which is most easily accessible from

all dLAN devices in the network is automatically desig-

nated by these as the Central Coordinator ('CCo') and

from then on coordinates the communication between

the nodes. By default, dLANs are configured as a Peer-

to-Peer network.

2.3.2 dLAN MDU

If the dLAN is configured as an 'MDU' network (MDU:

'Multiple Dwelling Unit'), the connected network

nodes are linked as 'slaves' to a 'master' and form a

logical dLAN network segment along with their 'mas-

ter'. Each slave sends data only to its master. At the

technical level, communication between the slaves of

the MDU dLANs is not possible. The masters of the

MDU dLANs are interconnected via Ethernet switches.

Thus MDU dLANs are ideally suited for floor-by-floor

networking (such as in hotels).

MDU dLANs can be configured only in the expert mode

of the dLAN AVpro manager.
