1Preface

1.1 Thank you for placing your

trust in this devolo product.

devolo dLAN business solutions are a favourably

priced option for using the power grid infrastructure

in a building to establish a broadband IP network.

The advantage this brings is obvious: no new cables

have to be laid – expenditure and costs remain low.

dLAN can be used as an easily scalable, primary net-

work as well as to supplement an existing infrastruc-

ture.

You do not even have to do without an electrical

socket, as the dLAN 500 AVpro+ provides a power

supply to which you can connect your terminal de-

vices or multiple sockets as usual. The integrated

mains filter significantly improves data transmission

in the network.

The fast transfer rate of up to 500 Mbps makes every

bandwidth-intensive Internet application a real mul-

timedia treat. The integrated "Quality of Service"

function measures the bandwidth requirement, opti-

mises the data flow and ensures excellent quality—

particularly for voice and video data.

To protect your data, simply press a button on the

dLAN 500 AVpro+ to activate the convenient and

secure 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)

encryption. In addition, the patented power saving

mode, which comes standard, automatically uses

less power.

1.1.1 About this manual

After a brief introduction to "dLAN" and "Green IT"

basics in Chapter 2, Chapter 3 will cover successfully

setting up your dLAN 500 AVpro+. Chapter 4 ex-

plains how to configure your dLAN network. Tips for

bandwidth optimisation, information about product

safety and environmental compatibility of the device

and our warranty conditions can be found in

Chapter 5 and conclude the manual.

You can find the technical data for the

dLAN 500 AVpro+ in the product information sheet

on the enclosed product CD.

2 Introduction

dLAN is an intelligent, secure technology that lets you

set up a home network easily, quickly and economical-

ly via your household electrical wiring, without the

need for complex and expensive dedicated cabling.

The available performance and effort required for the

installation also compares favourably to traditional

methods.

8 Introduction

devolo dLAN 500 AVpro+

2.1 What exactly is dLAN?

dLAN (direct Local Area Network) uses the household

power grid to transfer data between computers

equipped with suitable devices and other network

components. As a result, any power outlet can be used

as a network access point. The data is modulated prior

to transfer and sent as a signal via household power

lines. State-of-the-art technology ensures that the

power and data networks do not interfere with one an-

other. Networking via dLAN is fast and secure. The

data is encrypted using a key to prevent easy intercep-

tion by third parties.

2.2 devolo—Up to speed on green

The topic everyone is talking about is green IT. devolo

has an easy solution: the energy saving mode, which

comes standard with the network adapters, sets the

company apart from many competitors in the IT indus-

try.

Developers at devolo, have for a long time kept a close

eye on how much power dLAN AVpro adapters may

consume. After all, a devolo network via electrical

sockets should not only be convenient, but also require

as little energy as possible—particularly during times

when it is not being used.

That devolo can satisfy the demand for energy efficien-

cy is evidenced by the patented energy saving mode

in the devices. It automatically reduces the energy

consumption when the computers in the dLAN net-

work or connected equipment are switched off.

The power saving mode in the adapters is not only a

tribute to environmental protection but also a real

service to the customer. Most people tend to forget to

regularly press the standby button on the hardware.

The patented technology in devolo adapters al-

lows you to save energy without having to do

anything. And if less energy is consumed, your elec-

tric meter will turn more slowly. In other words, every

minute the adapter is in power saving mode, you will

save money.

Introduction 9

devolo dLAN 500 AVpro+

A dLAN AVpro adapter connected to

a computer can only go into energy

saving mode if the network card of

the switched-off computer is also

inactive. If you are using a network

card that remains active even when

the computer is switched off, we

recommend connecting the comput-

er to an on/off switch using a multi-

ple socket so that both the

computer and the integrated net-

work card are de-energised.

If you would like to ensure that a dLAN AVpro adapter

does not switch to energy saving mode, this func-

tion can be deactivated in the dLAN AVpro manager

software.
