Electrical installations are meant to provide energy to all the appliances and devices in a home or any other type of building, but they can be adapted for other uses, in this case setting up a local area network.

Which is to say, TRENDnet has launched two new Powerline adapters. And not just any adapters, but the type that work twice as well as normal ones, or that was the claim anyway.

The Powerline 1000 standard is used, Gigabit class as it were. That's why they're called Powerline 1000 adapters instead of Powerline AV.

The name of the new product set is TPL-420E2K and can cover distances of 300 meters, or 980 feet. That's the equivalent of a 5,000 square foot home (464 square meters).

The price of the TRENDnet TPL-420E2K is $169.99 / €169.99.
