Wilife HomePlug Technology

HomePlug™ is the technology that connects devices to each other through the power lines in your home or office. HomePlug-certified products connect PCs and other devices that use Ethernet, USB and 802.11 "Wi-Fi" technologies to the powerline via a HomePlug "bridge" or "adapter." In all, this technology provides a simple solution for distributing connectivity around the home without adding any new wires. HomePlug technology is the power behind the Logitech WiLife Video Security System's incredible ease of setup. Each Security Camera is connected to a standard electrical outlet. There is no need to configure the Security Camera; nor is there a need to install or configure any wireless routers or other networking equipment. Customers don't have to purchase any additional wires, or re-wire their home in order to implement. Logitech WiLife Video Surveillance is simply a ladder-less and drill-free setup. Besides the ease of setup, using HomePlug Technology also allows the camera to pass secure video data over existing power lines to the USB adapter, which then passes the video to the computer.
