TP-LINK - TL-PA7027P KIT - AV1000 2-Port Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Starter Kit

TL-PA7027P KIT — TP-Link AV1000 2-Port Gigabit Passthrough Powerline Starter Kit

The TP-Link TL-PA7027P KIT is an AV1000 powerline starter kit with two HomePlug AV2 adapters, each with two Gigabit Ethernet ports and an extra UK power socket. It carries your network at up to 1000 Mbps over existing electrical wiring, with up to 300 metres range and 128-bit AES encryption.

What the TL-PA7027P KIT is for

Two ports at each end mean you can wire a smart TV and a games console, or a PC and a printer, from one adapter without adding a switch. The pass-through socket keeps the wall outlet available, and the built-in noise filter helps keep the link stable.

For a single device, the TL-PA7017P KIT does the same job with one port per adapter. Browse more in data networking.

Buying from Zenith Security Co.

We are a supplier, not an installer. We will go through the TL-PA7027P KIT with you before you buy, including whether powerline suits your building and what speed to expect, and depending on your requirements and your area we can point you towards a qualified trade installer. We have been trading since 2012 and hold stock at our Wolverhampton trade counter.

How fast is the TP-Link TL-PA7027P KIT?

Up to 1000 Mbps physical rate on the powerline side. Real throughput is lower and depends on your wiring and interference; both ports are gigabit so wired devices are not limited to 100 Mbps.

Can I connect two devices to one adapter?

Yes. Each TL-PA7027P has two Gigabit Ethernet ports, so a TV and console, or PC and printer, can share one adapter.

Does it have a UK pass-through socket?

Yes, each adapter has an extra power socket with a built-in noise filter, so you do not lose the outlet.

Will it work with my existing powerline adapters?

TP-Link state it is compatible with all HomePlug AV and AV2 powerline adapters, including the TL-PA7017 KIT. Each link runs at the speed of the slower adapter.

Is the connection secure?

Yes. Press Pair on each adapter to set up 128-bit AES encryption.

How quickly can I get it?

Stocked items are despatched for delivery within 1-2 working days to England, Scotland and Wales. We do not ship to Northern Ireland.

Can I see one before buying?

Yes. Our trade counter is at Unit 3, Park View Centre, 243 Dudley Road, Wolverhampton WV2 3JU.
