Converting Power into a Supersonic Network

PLA6456 transforms the way users network their homes with the new G.hn technology! It transforms your power outlets into a fast network while extending Internet access throughout your home. Capable of delivering up to 2400 Mbps, it is perfect for 8K streaming and provides lag-free online gaming experience.

Benefits

Next-Gen G.hn Powerline Technology

As demand for ultra-fast Internet speed increases, G.hn technology is becoming the best in-home electrical network connection. Up to two times faster than HomePlug AV2 technology. Zyxel PLA6456 with G.hn technology delivers maximum data transfer rate and stability for your home networking.

Optimized for 8K and online games

As more 4K and 8K video content are available, PLA6456 delivers superb performance and low latency for your home streaming entertainment system. PLA6456 provides plenty of bandwidth for 8K video streams and fast connection for lag-free online gaming sessions. Experience top-notch digital entertainment.

Easy to setup and connect

Plug in two PLA6456 to any electrical outlets in your home and then instantly gain a network connection without having to run physical wires. Push the sync button on both PLA6456 to quickly and securely get a AES 128-bit encrypted network going through your electrical outlets.

Pass-thru design for an extra power outlet

A pass-through outlet allows you to keep your existing powered devices connected. No power outlet sacrifice needed. The embedded noise filter eliminates electrical signal noise to further improve your electrical outlet's network quality.

Gigabit Ethernet port for blazing speed

Equipped with a Gigabit Ethernet port, the PLA6456 allows you to connect Ethernet enabled devices at Gigabit speeds. Perfect for streaming 8K video on smart TVs. Just plug an Ethernet cable to your favorite device for maximum speed!

Power saving with standby mode

PLA6456 automatically goes into standby mode to reduce the Powerline adapter's power usage when the device is not in use. Save on your electric bill, reduce up to 90% of power consumption while in standby mode.

ZyXEL transceivers family follow industry standard to secure the compatibility with other brands' switches having no proprietary technology barrier. Rich portfolio for Fast and Gigabit Ethernet, just plug in the proper one, users can extend the physical network boundary as far as they wish. Independent ZyXEL transceiver design provides the highest flexibility for network maintenance. Apart with switch, transceivers can be added when they are really in need. Moreover, infrastructure upgrade or transceivers repair can be done easily by just changing transceiver, not whole device.

The ZyXEL transceiver family follows industry standards to assure compatibility with switches from other manufacturers without barrier set by proprietary technologies. With ZyXEL's comprehensive Fast, Gigabit and 10 Gigabit transceiver product range, also Direct Attached Cable 1 M/3 M, users can just plug the proper model onto the network to extend the physical coverage. Independent transceiver design provides the highest network maintenance flexibility. Transceivers can be freely added when required, and infrastructure upgrades or transceiver repairs can be done easily by just replacing the transceiver instead of the whole device. Traditional fiber optic networking requires two strands of fiber to accomplish communications, in which one strand is reserved for sending signals, while the other is for receiving. On the other hand, bi-directional, dual-wavelength transceivers can establish communications over just one strand of fiber by using two separate optical wavelengths: one receives and the other transmits signals. Transmission capacity can be expanded immediately without additional cost laying new fiber. The enhanced digital interface enables a real time link to be established between the switch and the SFP transceiver. This enables the switch to access operating parameters within the fiber link. This includes digital features such as soft control and monitoring of SFP I/O signals. In addition, the DDMI functionality enables the capability to implement digital alarms and warnings. This feature ensures that the business can be proactive in preventative maintenance of the network and ensure business continuity.

Supporting Digital Diagnostics Monitoring Interface (DDMI) SFP enhances management capability

The enhanced digital interface enables a real time link to be established between the switch and the SFP transceiver. This enables the switch to access operating parameters within the fiber link. This includes digital features such as soft control and monitoring of SFP I/O signals. In addition, the DDMI functionality enables the capability to implement digital alarms and warnings.
