3.1 Secured Pairing with 128 bits-AES
The Powerline Adapter uses a 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption
Standard) pairing connection for safe data transmission. For the
Powerline Adapters to communicate with one another, they all need to
use the same Network Membership Key (NMK).
3.2 Secured Powerline AV Network through the Pair Button
You can connect multiple devices onto a Powerline network, but you
can only pair up to two devices at a time through the pair button.
How to set up a secured Powerline network：
Step 1. Press the pair button of the first Powerline Adapter (A) for 1
second. The Power LED will start flashing.
Step 2. Press the pair button of second Powerline Adapter (B) for 1
second. The Power LED will start flashing.
(Make sure to press the two pair buttons within 120 seconds from each other).
