Actual data throughput and data over distance will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffi c, building material and
construction, and network overhead, result in lower actual data throughput rate.
Do not plug devices into the XAV5501 fi ltered AC outlet that exceed the product ratings. The output voltage of the fi ltered AC outlet is the same as the power
outlet which the XAV5501 is plugged into. To help avoid damaging your system, be sure that the attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power
available in your location.
Outlets must be electrically connected in order for Powerline devices to provide a network connection between them.
