Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a Panasonic HD-PLC product.
Main features
Flexible and stable network access anywhere in your home
The BL-PA100 offers the next generation in home networking: high-speed power
line communication. High-speed internet access and high performance data
transfers are now available in any room.
Every AC outlet becomes a home network access point
Because HD-PLC technology makes use of the existing electrical wiring in your
home, there’s no need to run cables between rooms.
Easy to expand
Up to 16 adaptors in all can be used, which means you can add additional adaptors
whenever you need to add a network connection in another room of the house.
Simple network speed testing
You can confirm the speed of each adaptor's HD-PLC connection by simply
pressing a button.
Fast, reliable, and secure
With speeds of up to 190 Mbps (PHY rate) *1 , advanced error correction, and AES
128-bit encryption, the BL-PA100 provides peace of mind at the speed of light.
For more information about how HD-PLC works, see page 8.
*1 This is the theoretical maximum data transmission speed of the HD-PLC standard. The actual
maximum data transmission speed is about 70 Mbps for UDP and 42 Mbps for TCP. Results
may vary depending on electrical conditions, network environment, and other factors. See the
specifications for more information.
