The Gigaset HomePlug AV 200
The Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 is a network adapter that offers high-speed data
communication reliably and cost-effectively via the existing mains supply. It can be
used at home or also in small offices, thus eliminating the laying of network cables
throughout the house or office.
Following installation of the Gigaset HomePlug AV 200, the mains supply behaves like
a traditional, local Ethernet network (LAN) for PCs. You can extend your network
without additional wiring as the device does not require external electronic
components.
Features
The Gigaset HomePlug AV 200:
uEnables connections from PC to PC or from PC to other devices with an Ethernet
connection in a local network via the standard mains supply.
uAllows shared use of broadband Internet access, for example via an ADSL router.
uAllows shared use of multimedia data transmission such as voice, data, audio and
video.
uEliminates the need for long network cables traversing your home or office.
uOffers a cost-effective and reliable solution for high-speed data communication for
the private sphere as well as for smaller companies.

Local Network with the Gigaset HomePlug AV 200
The Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 offers numerous possibilities for setting up a local
network in your home or office. The basis for this network is the package you purchased
with two devices, which you can use, for example, for the following configurations:
uPC – PC communication
uConnecting PCs to the Internet
uEstablishing a connection for Internet television (IPTV)
Further details are available from the following explanations:
PC – PC Communication
You can use the Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 to set up a local network. All PCs in this
network can communicate with one another and share the following elements:
uFiles and applications as well as
uPeripherals and printers
In a wired local area network, the PCs normally communicate via an Ethernet cable. The
Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 allows you to use the existing mains supply instead of
Ethernet cables. This is then referred to as a Powerline network. The PCs have to be
equipped with a network port (Ethernet). New PCs generally have this port. You will
need to install an Ethernet network adapter in the case of older PCs. The PC and the
Ethernet LAN port on the Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 are connected using the supplied
Ethernet cable (CAT5). You can obtain additional Ethernet cables from any specialist
retail store.
The Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 supports transmission rates of up to 200 Mbps. Please
note that performance may be restricted by various circumstances. For example, the
connected devices share the capacity of the network so that the actual data
transmission rate is dependent on the number of connected devices and the volume of
data traffic.

Establishing a Connection for Internet Television (IPTV)
IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) is the upcoming technology on the market for home
entertainment. The television or IPTV set-top box must be connected to your broadband
for this purpose. There is often no DSL connection in the room in which the television is
located. This means that cabling would be necessary in order to bring Internet television
to your television. However, the Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 allows you to set up this
connection via the mains supply.
In this configuration, a Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 connects a LAN port of the ADSL
router to the Powerline network while the other Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 connects
the IPTV set-top box to the Powerline network.
Security in the Network
The Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 network has predefined security settings in order to
protect your network from unauthorised access. The following settings guarantee the
security of your network:
uIndividual network ID:
A Powerline network is defined by an identical network ID (name of network) for all
components. All devices with this network ID are part of the same Powerline
network. All adapters are preconfigured in an operational state ex works.
uDynamic encryption:
The devices use 128-bit AES encryption. The key itself is changed several times every
minute.
Your Powerline network is protected by very effective security settings without you
having to make any settings yourself.

be selected. A new (random) network ID is assigned to two adapters during the course
of the synchronisation process.
Carry out the following steps here:
uConnect all Gigaset HomePlug AV 200 to the mains supply.
uReset the network ID of each individual adapter (p. 11).
uPress the synchronisation keys for both adapters in succession for two seconds each.
The Link LEDs on the two adapters light after a few seconds and the Powerline network
is synchronised.
