TL-PA2010P AV200 Powerline Adapter with AC Pass Through

Chapter 5 Advanced Feature: How to Use the Pair Buttons

5.1 Pair (Secure with 128 bits-AES)

The Homeplug AV standard uses 128-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) to safely transmit data

between powerline adapters. For the powerline adapters to communicate with each other they all need

to use the same Network Membership Key (NMK). Otherwise, they cannot unscramble the encrypted

data sent in the powerline network.

The Pair button allows you to set up a secure powerline connection with other HomePlug AV compliant

powerline devices which also support the Pair feature.

5.2 Set Up a Powerline AV Network with the Pair Button

You can connect a number of devices on a powerline network, but you can use the Pair button on only

two devices at a time.

Create a Powerline network using the Pair button：

Step 1. Press and hold the Pair button of Powerline adapter A for 1 second, the Power LED will start

flashing.

Step 2. Press and hold the Pair button of Powerline adapter B for 1 second, the Power LED will start

flashing.

(This must be done within 120 seconds after pressing the Pair button of Powerline adapter A.)

Step 3. Wait for about 60 seconds while your Powerline adapter A and B are connecting. The Power

LEDs on both adapters will stop flashing and become solid light when the connection is made.
