Network Expansion Kit

The TRENDnet TPL-406E2K kit includes two compact powerline adapters that extend a wired network through existing electrical wiring. It suits homeowners or renters who want reliable connections in rooms where Wi-Fi is weak or running Ethernet cable is impractical.

Electrical Integration

Each adapter plugs directly into a wall outlet and provides a single Ethernet port for a computer, smart TV or gaming console. The nano form factor leaves the neighbouring socket free, and up to eight adapters can join the same powerline network without new cabling.

Power and Thermal Profile

Maximum active draw is 2.7 watts per adapter, dropping to 0.34 watts in standby. The units operate silently with no moving parts and are rated for environments from 0 to 40 °C at up to 90 % non-condensing humidity.
