February 16, 2012 (Sydney): NetComm Wireless Limited (ASX: NTC) today announced the release of its 500Mbps Powerline Adapters (NP504) with AC Pass-through. The device provides homes and businesses with the capacity to transform existing electrical wiring into a high-performance network capable of supporting today’s bandwidth-intensive activities including high-definition streaming, multimedia and online gaming.
The release coincides with the National Broadband Network (NBN) rollout and enables optimal connectivity throughout Australian premises. The user-friendly 500Mbps Powerline Adapters instantly deliver superfast speeds of up to 500Mbps between adapters with plug and play simplicity, and can be used in any available power point. Bandwidth-intensive devices such as HD-TVs, gaming consoles and Blu-ray players can access Internet or home/business networks by connecting to the Gigabit (10/100/1000) port.
"Users can now maximise the performance and reach of their current broadband connection, and take full advantage of NBN fibre speeds when available. With connected devices moving to all areas of the home it's important that a fast and reliable connection can be simply and easily achieved in any room without the need for additional equipment, cables or wiring," said Danny Morrison, General Manager, NetComm Wireless.

The pre-configured adapters feature AC Pass-through to keep power sockets free for other electrical devices, and the compact form allows for easy concealment behind furniture.
