Chapter 1 Product Overview
1.1 Product Introduction
The PEA200 series power line adapter can use the existing power wires to transfer data without
additional wiring. It supports plug-and-play and can extend network connections only by using two
adapters as long as there is a power outlet. The distance that the adapter transfers data in the power line
network is up to 300m.
With the existing power line, the PEA200 series power line adapter can run at the
transmission rate up to 200Mbps. Actual speeds will depend on connection quality and distance.
The PEA200 series power line adapter supports 128-bit AES encryption. It can establish a secure
connection easily in order to ensure safe data transfer. The adapter has a Pair button. You can use the
Pair button to create a private network among several adapters quickly and safely.
1.2 Product Characteristics

RJ45 port: one 10/100Mbps port which is used to connect with network devices，see the LAN status
indicator for the operating status of the port.
RESET button: restore the factory settings.
Pair button: the button to build the network. Press the Pair button for 2-3 seconds within 2 minutes to
establish connection between two devices and a private network. If you press the Pair button on the
device for over 10 seconds, the device will exit the original network automatically and establish a random
private network. For more information about function applications of Pair button, see the Application of
the Pair Button in Chapter 5.
2.3 Application
In order to access the LAN through the power line, the computer device needs to be connected
through network wires and Ethernet adapter (the adapter needs to be compatible). To install the power
line network according to the following steps:
1. Install the first power line adapter
Connect the adapter’s RJ45 port to the family network interface, such as the router’s LAN port.
Insert the adapter to the supply hub.

2. Install the second power line adapter
Interface the computer's internet to the adapter's RJ45 port with network wires.
Insert the adapter to the supply hub.
3. Check if the indicator on the adapter works normally. If it works in normal state, it means the
network connection has been successfully established. If the indicator shows abnormal, please
check the connection of the device.
4. If more computers are to be connected, you can use several adapters to connect them together.

Chapter 4 Configure the Management Software
This chapter describes how to use the client management software to manage the adapters. If
necessary, you can encrypt the PEA200 series, change its name, or restore its factory settings
etc. You can also use this software to identify other adapters on the power line and check the line rate
etc.
4.1 Main Interface
When the installation is completed, double click the "DishTV Power Packet Utility" icon on the desktop
to go to the main interface of management software. As shown below, there are four menus on the top left
of main interface, “Main”, “Privacy”, “Diagnostic” and “Help”. The upper part of the main interface is the
list of local network adapters. The lower half of main interface displays the device information in the
same power line network.
Figure 4.1
Local Device(s) on your computer: It displays the current power line adapter connected with the
computer, and the connection status is shown above the Connection button. After the connection is
established between the computer and the power line adapter, this management software will search for
similar devices in the power line network periodically.
“X” Power Device detected: It shows here the remote power line adapter searched by management
software in the same power line network. The “X" indicates the numbers.
Network Type: It displays the type of the power line network connected with the computer. Currently
there are two network types, pubic network and private network. Public Network is named
HomePlugAV network by default. In this network you can use the management software to search
corresponding power line adapters. Private Network is named non-default HomePlugAV network. Only
the power line adapters, whose names have been set as the same one in the private network tab, can be
seen with each other.
