devolo Launches Next-Generation Powerline Solutions at CeBIT 2010

Jan. 29, 2010 - PRLog -- Powerline networking specialist devolo will be exclusively previewing its next generation of dLAN products at CeBIT 2010. The new range of devolo HomePlug products will offer transmission rates of up to 500 Mbps and will be capable of supporting 100 Mbps broadband.

devolo will be showcasing the dLAN 200 AV Wireless N adapter, which provides a simple way to set up wireless LAN in the home, the dLAN 200 AV USB Extender and the dLAN TV Sat 1300-HD - the first dLAN set-top box to stream digital satellite television around the home.

dLAN 200 AV Wireless N
The dLAN 200 AV Wireless N features internal wireless LAN antennas enabling wireless LAN networks to be set up quickly and easily via existing electrical cables. The WiFi N standard ensures that the full dLAN bandwidth of 200 Mbps is used while three Ethernet sockets mean users can operate multiple network-compatible devices through a single dLAN adapter.

dLAN 200 AV USB
Featuring a USB port rather than an Ethernet interface, the dLAN 200 AV USB Extender enables USB devices such as printers, hard drives or webcams to be easily integrated into the dLAN home network, providing a quick and easy plug-and-play solution for home users.

dLAN TV Sat 1300-HD
The dLAN TV Sat 1300-HD brings together the advantages of HomePlug technology and satellite reception, providing a simple and convenient way to stream digital satellite television in HD quality over existing electrical cabling without the need for a coaxial line. The device can also be used as an EPG-supported video recorder while its HDMI interface and digital output ensure best-quality transmission.

devolo will also be presenting products from its existing range including the ultra-compact dLAN 200 AVmini dLAN adapter which has a depth of only 29 mm and can be used anywhere in the home. Also being showcased is the dLAN 200 AVsmart+, the world’s first HomePlug adaptor with an inbuilt LCD status display to indicate network performance, connection quality, and the rate at which data is being streamed through the home.

Heiko Harbers, CEO of devolo AG said: "By offering an exclusive preview of the new dLAN generation we hope to show that devolo provides the perfect backbone for home networking now, and in the future. Our three-year warranty and accordance with the IEEE P1901 international powerline standard offer retailers a security they will not easily find from other manufacturers.”
