“With its
high bandwidth and fool-proof implementation, more and more consumers are
turning to powerline technology to either replace or supplement their WiFi
networks. In fact, the HomePlug Alliance recently announced that global
HomePlug product shipments doubled in the last 12 months from 8 to 16 million
units,” said Michael Ehlenberger, VP, Channel Sales at Actiontec. “Actiontec’s
leading position at key retailers like Amazon is due to the fact that we’re
able to provide retail consumers with a broad line of high quality, easy-to-use
HomePlug certified devices that allow consumers to choose the exact solution
that best fits their needs.”
With its
high-speed transmission rates, the MegaPlug series lets consumers effortlessly
transfer hundreds of photos from a computer in the home office to the living room
in seconds, or stream movie files from the kitchen to the bedroom. Actiontec’s
MegaPlug solutions provide enhanced 128-bit AES security to prevent neighbors
on the same power grid to access personal files or Internet connections.
MegaPlug devices also combat electrical interference generated by appliances
and other electronic devices, as well as jitter and latency problems.
The
Actiontec MegaPlug family includes the MegaPlug 85 Mbps Ethernet Adapter,
Actiontec AV 200 Mbps Ethernet Adapter, MegaPlug Wireless Extender, and
MegaPlug 85 Mbps 4-Port Hub. Products are available for purchase at a wide
