Product Description
What do G.hn Powerline Adapters do? With the GPL-1200PoE you can:
DELIVER DATA & POWER ANYWHERE THERE’S AN OUTLET – Deliver data connectivity and power via PoE (Power over Ethernet) to hard-to-reach locations via the existing electrical wiring.
INCREASE RELIABILITY & REDUCE INSTALLATION COST – Save time and money by leveraging your existing electrical wiring to deliver data & power, rather than cutting and drilling through drywall and installing lengthy ethernet cabling.
A TRULY SECURE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM – Wireless security cameras are vulnerable to hackers and external attacks. Secure your system with G.hn AES128 BITS Encryption and a hardwired connection.
Turn Your Electrical Outlets into an Ultra-Fast Network
Maximize existing electrical outlets by connecting up to 16 devices within a G.hn Powerline Network.
Expand Data & Power to hard-to reach locations
Deliver Data & Power to remote areas of the house that Ethernet cables typically don’t reach– like work from home offices, garages, and front doors
More Secure than Wireless
Keep the hackers away from your home security cameras and network! Ensure your network is secure with AES128 Bit Encryption
Don’t just extend. Expand and Connect.
Wireless extenders boost an already weakening signal. G.hn technology delivers superior performance through a direct electrical wired connection. Benefit from algorithms designed to improve video quality and minimize lag.

Works well with Hikvision camera on NVR in area could never run CAT5e.
I could not run at CAT5e cable to where a customer wanted a camera, so I took a chance on this item and WOW. It works great…once you make a sync with this item and another it is like having a real cable there. This was a big house and over 4000sqft with multiple floors and several panels electrical so happy it worked so well. Once connected and in sync to the other one plugged in to NVR it saw it and acted like it was hardwired. Very good and took power down and it came back up same and no issues. A keeper and will use them from now on……guy had huge mesh network from Eero and no issue. Wow….

Some Troubleshooting Tips
These work great. The first two paired up without a hitch; the third one would not connect no matter what I tried (the “connect” light on top was dark, except for flashing red once or twice during configuration attempt). Here’s how I got it working:- Plug an existing (already-paired) adapter and your new adapter into a non-surge-protected powerstrip. For some reason, proximity is key; I tried plugging them into outlets in the same room, and it didn’t work.- If your new adapter’s Connect light is still dark, do a hard-reboot of both adapters (hold down Config button for 10 seconds). Then press the Config button for three seconds on each adapter to start the config process. They should link up.- Once your network is running, you should login to each adapter:– Set your computer’s IP address to 192.168.0.6, which will allow it to talk to the adapters on the same subnet.– In your browser, go to 192.168.0.5. This is the default IP address for all the adapters. ** Which adapter responds to the browser is totally random, and can change when you navigate between configuration screens! ** This is enormously confusing and you should fix it thusly:– Go to the “IP” screen. Under “DHCP Enabled”, select YES. This will allow your router to assign the adapter a normal IP address on your LAN. Your screen will reload and you’ll be back at the login screen — but this is a different adapter! Repeat this process for each adapter you have. When finished, your adapters will all be on your main LAN subnet, each with their own IP address. Your router admin screen should show you what their new IP addresses are; the adapter’s device name is “Comtrend Corporation”.– Switch your computer back to your main LAN subnet (or just select DHCP). Now you can navigate to the separate IP addresses to configure each adapter independently. Because there’s one more step…– Under the “Device” menu in the configuration screen, you can see your firmware version. These adapters are manufactured by Comtrend. They’re co-branded as NexusLink and I think at least one other brand, however they’re the same device. The NexusLink website does not have updated firmware; the Comtrend site does. I needed to update the firmware on each of mine (no idea what the new firmware does, but I’ll take any upgrade). Download the firmware .zip file from the website, unzip the .bin file inside, and then at the bottom of the “Device” menu is an option to browse for your firmware file.Hope this helps someone!

Crappy Instructions
This product will work after a few days battling with the connections. I was upgrading an AV Powerline system to the GPL-1200PoE and only learned they are not compatible AFTER attempting to connect the two for hours. This took two days to order a G.hn version of Powerline GPL-1200 adapter so I could stream video over LAN. Then after all this worked for one camera, the second GPL-1200PoE would not work until I spent a day figuring out how to factory reset it. Then the only way it would connect was after connecting a Windoze PC to transfer data that eventually worked with the camera. Really sloppy product management and support that ignored email.

It works easily and powers an IP Phone just fine!
I got this along with another powerline adapter from the same company. Only one end needed PoE. I didn’t have to read any instructions to get the two set up. Plug one in, push the button. Plug this one in, push the button. They synced up and then I plugged in the IP phone and it worked right off! There’s been storms and a power flicker and it came right back up working.

Reliable, easy to install
I got this NexusLink powerline adapter to add to the existing NexusLink powerline network in my home. If you do not already have a NexusLink network set up (i.e., at least two existing NexusLink powerline adapters installed and working), you will need to buy a second one of these to set up your network.One note about powerline adapters: how well they work depends on how your house is wired and how you set up the network. First, plug all adapters directly into the wall outlet. Don’t use power strips or surge protectors. Doing so will *greatly* reduce the speed and quality of your connection. If you adhere to this guidance, the adapters will work well and give you a solid connection with decent speed. However, adapters that are all installed on the same circuit (i.e., all outlets are controlled by a single circuit breaker in your electrical box) will operate at higher speeds that adapters installed on different circuits. I only have one additional adapter on the same circuit as the adapter that is connected to my router. I notice about 20% better speed with this connection. However, this does not figure into my decision on where to locate powerline adapters; I put them where they are needed, and even on different circuits they give better speed and reliability than WiFi. In most cases in my house, they are located where there is little or no WiFi signal to begin with.As with my previous NexusLink powerline adapters, included is an easy to follow quick install guide that is illustrated AND was clearly written by someone whose first language is English, in stark contrast to most electronics these days. The guide is simple to follow, even if you are not technically inclined at all.The adapters work great. Plugging in to the Ethernet point on this adapter gives me the same speed as I get plugging directly into the router attached to my cable modem. (Full disclosure: my home Internet connection is advertised at 100Mpbs, but real-world performance tops out around 70-80Mbps in the best-case scenario even when connected directly via Ethernet, so that’s not even beginning to tax the top advertised speed of this powerline setup).As stated above, I had several existing NexusLink powerline adapters already. One was plugged in near my Internet router and it feeds all the others. Adding additional adapters is just as simple as the original setup, and you can add adapters up to a total of 16. You simply plug in the new adapter, press the config button on one of the existing adapters, then press the config button on the new adapter. In a few seconds, the new adapter connects to the exiting setup!To be clear, you don’t have to put an additional adapter at the Internet router; that single adapter feeds all the rest. You simply add additional adapters wherever in the house you need them. As I’m sure most households do, we have a menagerie of electronics that require Internet access: TVs, Amazon Echos, IP cameras, etc., in addition to the usual MacBooks, iPads, and iPhones. Where possible, I prefer to use a wired connection. It’s generally faster than wireless, plus the more devices you can moved from wireless to wired, the less congestion on the wi-fi network, therefore the faster the connection to the remaining wireless devices.This adapter differs from others I have in that it supports PoE (power over Ethernet). However, I do not have any equipment that requires PoE, so I can’t speak to how the PoE feature works.

It only registers at 100 mbps. Not 1200 mbps as advertised.
