The recent influx of IP connected devices has led to a significant increase in demand for data networking installers, and as a result, stockists. Power Ethernet sockets are the first product to integrate Powerline Communications (PLC) networking technology directly into an electrical socket, enabling electricians to start specifying and installing data networks in both commercial and residential buildings without the need for additional specialist cabling or networking knowledge.
Replacing the front socket panel of a British Standard 35mm double gang back box with the Power Ethernet Socket enables electricians to take advantage of a building’s existing electrical wiring to create a high-speed and secure data network for connecting customers’ computers, Voice over IP phones, multimedia set-top boxes, Internet-connected TVs and other IP enabled devices.
