Chapter 3 Powerline to Ethernet Bridge Installation
Please follow the procedures below to install your PL-401E:
1. Plug one end of an UTP category 5 cable into the computer, switch or hub’s LAN port.
2. Plug the other end of the network cable into one of the 10/100 RJ45 Ethernet ports on
PL-401E.
3. Plug the power cord into the powerline port on PL-401E.
4. Plug the other end of the power cord into a power outlet.
Note1: Use only the supplied power cord to connect PL-401E to the power outlet.
Note2: Because PL-401E sends data over the powerline of your house, it is best to
plug its power cord directly into a power outlet. Do not plug PL-401E into a UPS
power strip with surge protection. PL-401E has its own power filter for protection
against surges.
