HPNA LAN

To eliminate the need to install network wiring, the SBG1000 provides a Home Phoneline Network Alliance (

HPNA

or HomePNA) V2.0 connection. HPNA networks use existing telephone lines to connect the computers without
interfering with telephone voice service,

DSL

,

ISDN

, modems, or fax machines. HPNA networks can extend up to

1000 feet (300 meters).

Sample HPNA network connections

Each computer requires an HPNA adapter to connect to the HPNA network. HPNA adapters (sold elsewhere) are
available for PCI or USB. After installing the HPNA adapter, you must install HPNA driver software on the
computer following the instructions provided with the HPNA adapter.

HPNA 2.0 supports 10 Mbps data transfer similar to Ethernet 10Base-T.

If there is more than one telephone line, you must make all HPNA connections to the same line. You can connect
a telephone to the top HPNA port on the

Rear Panel

.
