Traditional Local Area Networks
Networking Method I:
CAT5 Cables must be pulled from
routers/switches to point of use and then
terminated:
Cost $200 to $400 per drop
Networking Method II:
Wireless (WiFi)
Slow & Spotty
Long Distance Method III:
Fiber Run
Very Expensive

What is Electric Connect®?
• Electric Connect® solution is designed to
enable high speed Ethernet packets to
traverse over many different transmission
mediums: in-premise electrical wiring, voice
grade twisted wires and long distance coaxial
cables. This ‘Virtual CAT5™' capability allows
us the vast opportunities of solving many
physical networking infrastructure connectivity
deployment related problems cost effectively,
hence, lower the Total Cost of Ownership
(TCO).

Why Electric Connect® ?
Cost Saving & Time Saving & Easy
– Virtual CAT5™: No New Cable™!
– Turns electrical outlets, phone jacks, existing CATV F-Type outlets and expired
CCTV cables into high-bandwidth local area networking infrastructure.
– No need to obtain Low Voltage cable installation permit.
– Eliminate oversight installation which may result in violation of Plenum cabling
code requirements.
– Easy to extend the Ethernet connection beyond 100 meters.
– Easy to deploy - No need to drill holes and no business activity down time.
– Easy to use embedded diagnostic tool – Capable of providing Certificate of
Performance for project acceptance.
– Easy to maintain. When the network breaks it is easy to find and identify the
problem.
Lower the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)!

ORTHOGONAL FREQUENCY DIVISION MULTIPLEXING
(OFDM)
OFDM is a based on the FDM (Frequency Division Multiplexing) techniques
with spread spectrum distribution of data over a large number of carriers
that are spaced apart at precise frequencies. FDM is a technology that
transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path,
such as multiple TV channels coexisting in your CATV service, or off air TV
broadcasting received using regular television set.
This spacing provides the "orthogonality" in this technique which
prevents the demodulators from seeing frequencies other than their own.
The benefits of OFDM are high spectral efficiency, resiliency to RF
interference, and lower multi-path distortion. This is useful because in a
typical power line medium, there are much contamination with multi-path
interferences due to impedance miss-match matters (i.e. poor cable quality,
bad connection), ambient noises (i.e. hair dryer, microwave oven), cable
loss, and etc. All of these noises interfere with each other and could
become very hard to extract the original data.

How to ensure your Electric Connect®
will work properly?
WE POWER UP NETWORKS!
Initial Site Survey
1. Is there only one electric meter at the site?
2. Where is the back office - uplink to the Internet/WAN?
3. How many devices will be connected to the network?
4. What type of backbone is already in existence?
5. How many and the location of the circuit breaker panel?
6. Insert one APL1100-200 device at the back office
location as the control device for the initial survey.
7. Now, bring the other APL1100-200 device to the
desirable location and plug it into the AC socket for
observation.

Network Deployment Tool
• The LED color indication will provide a good
feedback regarding the operational status of the
connection.
• Always use the NetBridge™ Utility during initial
system deployment to ensure a good
performance data for future reference.
• For more information about the UltraSpeed
NetBridge™ Utility, please refer to the User
Manual.

LED Diagnostic Tool
LNK/ACT
Test the bandwidth by identifying the LED Status:
Blue on: Connection speed over 12Mbps
Purple on: Connection speed between 6Mbps and 12Mbps
Amber on: Connection speed under 6Mbps
Off: Not connected

Beware of Power Adaptors
The switching power supplies generate high amount of
electrical noises which may interfere the Electric Connect®
system performance.
WE POWER UP NETWORKS!
Don’t Plug NetBridge into “Surge Protected”
Power Strips
They “Jam” Signal!
WE POWER UP NETWORKS!
UPS & Line Conditioners
They kill signal!
WE POWER UP NETWORKS!
IMPORTANT!
DON’T place NetBridge™ behind the UPS or
Surge Protection outlet.
Solution: Use patented APL4200 UPS-able
NetBridge™.
