Your home network from the power socket

With the dLAN® 1200+ powerline adapter you can easily build a powerful home network over the power line: connect your network-compatible devices at speeds up to 1,200 Mbps for advanced data transmission and lightning-fast Internet access. Connecting your computer, TV or game console to the Internet via adapter with Gigabit LAN port is a breeze. The integrated range+technology ensures a stable connection with significantly longer range.

 

Note: devolo dLAN adapters are compatible with all routers, network devices, other devolo dLAN adapters and other HomePlug AV products. Unfortunately, the new Magic powerline adapters cannot be connected to dLAN adapters due to the different standard.

devolo Powerline Technology

Powerline adapters provides you with high-speed Internet from the electrical socket. Connect your computer, consumer electronics and additional network-compatible devices to the Internet easily using the simple home network.

 

You can reach longer ranges without power loss thanks to range+ Technology. The Powerline adapters use the household power line for the Internet connection, making any power outlet an Internet connection. A fast connection in all rooms and on all floors is now possible without complicated wiring. Get your LAN from the electrical socket − on all floors, in the basement and even in the garden with Powerline.

Benefits at a glance

The fastest Internet from an electrical socket

The devolo dLAN® 1200+ adapter is equipped with a Gigabit LAN port, which you can use to easily connect your smart TV, computer or game console to the Internet using network cables.



If necessary, you can easily integrate additional adapters from devolo into your home network.

Lightning-fast connection

  • Lightning-fast connection at speeds up to 1,200 Mbps.
  • The range+technology provides a more stable Internet connection with significantly longer range. This Powerline technology allows for an even more efficient use of your power outlets.

Gigabit LAN connection

  • With the Gigabit LAN connection you can connect an Internet-compatible device at any time via network cable to the Internet (e.g. game console or Smart TV).
  • The optimal Internet connection for computers, televisions and game consoles. No signal loss – stable and continuous.

Lightning-fast Internet without additional wiring

The devolo dLAN® 1200+ Add-On adapter eliminates the need for complicated wiring and lets you take advantage of all of the possibilities offered by your home network directly through any electrical socket.



The Internet signal is transmitted directly over the electrical wiring. Just connect the terminal devices using network cables and connect the Powerline adapter to the nearest electrical socket.



The adapter uses range+ Technology, which ensures stable connections with significantly longer ranges. This also makes it possible to use a constant, high-speed signal on cable lengths of up to 300 metres.

Support / FAQ

Are my dLAN adapters automatically encrypted or can my neighbors listen in on my data?

Whether your neighbour can theoretically receive the data signal from your devolo network depends on the power grid in your home. Electricity meters and long cable lengths can greatly reduce the signal. To be on the safe side, we recommend encrypting your own network using the encryption button on the adapters or the devolo Cockpit software / Home Network app.

 

To do this, briefly press the encryption button on one adapter. Within 2 minutes, press the encryption button on the second adapter as well. If you have more than two adapters in your network, repeat the process for each additional adapter. The adapters generate a random password, exchange it with each other and the connection is then 128bit AES encrypted.

Can Wi-Fi be used simultaneously with the integrated LAN port?

Yes, Wi-Fi can be used simultaneously with the LAN port.

What are the prerequisites for using dLAN®? Where are the limits?

dLAN® works throughout the entire mains supply network of the house or apartment, regardless of whether the building is old or new. Of course, the network has to be on the same wiring, and the wire length must not exceed 300 meters. However, different phases are not a problem. Power meters attenuate the signal strongly, but do not necessarily block it.

Can I use devolo products even if I have different electrical circuits in my house?

Yes, devolo products also work if you have multiple circuits (phases) in the house. You do not have to modify the mains supply, such as by installing a phase coupler.

Can I also use devolo products in power strips?

In a few cases, power strips - particularly those with integrated switch and surge protection - can impair performance. To attain optimal connections, we recommend using devolo products with integrated (pass-thru) electrical socket and plugging the power strip into the devolo adapter.

Are dLAN adapters of different speed classes (200, 500, 650, 1200) compatible?

Yes, dLAN products of different speed classes are fully compatible with each other.

The only exception here is old devices with a speed of 14 and 85 Mbps. Unfortunately, these are not compatible with current products.

For technical reasons, devices from the devolo Magic series are not compatible with dLAN devices.

 

In a mixed network, each adapter connects to every other adapter at the highest possible speed. It does so independently of the other adapters in the network. In a network consisting of a 500 Mbps adapter and two 1200 Mbps adapters, for example, the 500 Mbps adapter will connect to the 1200 Mbps adapters at a speed of 500 Mbps. At the same time, the 1200 Mbps adapters connect to each other at the full 1200 Mbps.
