Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a Panasonic HD-PLC product.

Main features

Flexible and stable network access anywhere in your home

The BL-PA100 offers the next generation in home networking: high-speed power

line communication. High-speed internet access and high performance data

transfers are now available in any room.

Every AC outlet becomes a home network access point

Because HD-PLC technology makes use of the existing electrical wiring in your

home, there’s no need to run cables between rooms.

Easy to expand

Up to 16 adaptors in all can be used, which means you can add additional adaptors

whenever you need to add a network connection in another room of the house.

Simple network speed testing

You can confirm the speed of each adaptor's HD-PLC connection by simply

pressing a button.

Fast, reliable, and secure

With speeds of up to 190 Mbps (PHY rate)*1, advanced error correction, and AES

128-bit encryption, the BL-PA100 provides peace of mind at the speed of light.

For more information about how HD-PLC works, see page 8.

*1 This is the theoretical maximum data transmission speed of the HD-PLC standard. The actual

maximum data transmission speed is about 70 Mbps for UDP and 42 Mbps for TCP. Results

may vary depending on electrical conditions, network environment, and other factors. See the

specifications for more information.

Introduction

Electrical environment information

HD-PLC adaptors communicate with each other using the existing electrical wiring

in your home, and may be affected by electrical noise or the length of your home’s

wiring. Keep the following in mind when placing each adaptor.

AC outlets

For best results, we recommend connecting the adaptors directly to a wall outlet.

Avoid connecting high power-consuming appliances to the same wall outlet.

Additionally, connecting an adaptor to a uninterruptible power supply (UPS) or

backup power supply device is not recommended.

While connecting the adaptors to a wall outlet is recommended, keep the following

in mind if you must connect an adaptor to a power strip:

• Make sure the power strip does not have a noise filter or a surge protector,

as these features may interfere with the performance of your adaptors.

• Do not connect the adaptor to a power strip that receives power from

another power strip.

• Use a power strip with an AC cord that is as short as possible.

Electrical interference

Certain electrical devices emit electrical noise. If this noise is passed on to the

electrical wiring in your home, it may interfere with the performance, speed, and

reliability of your adaptors. For best results, we recommend connecting an

electrical noise filter to noise emitting appliances.

The following appliances are more likely to produce noise:

• Battery chargers (including cell phone chargers)

• Hair dryers

• Vacuum cleaners

• Lights or lamps which have a dimmer switch or a touch-sensitive on/off feature

• Power drills

Additionally, this product may interfere with the following appliances:

• Short wave radios

• Lights or lamps which have a touch-sensitive on/off feature

Electrical wiring

HD-PLC adaptors communicate with each other using the existing electrical wiring

in your home. If 2 wall outlets are separated by a great length of electrical wiring,

the adaptors connected to those outlets may not be able to communicate with each

other.

For more information, refer to the troubleshooting section (see page 16) or access

the Panasonic PLC Support Site at: http://panasonic.co.jp/pcc/products/en/plc/

After you have placed the adaptors where you plan to use them and plugged them

into the wall outlets, test the terminal’s network speed (see page 12).

Introduction

Security information

1. With any network connection, security is a concern. This product provides

security to prevent unauthorised access to your network.

• Only terminals that are registered to the master adaptor can

communicate with the network.

• A terminal may be registered to the master only if the SETUP buttons

on the master and terminal are pressed within 5 seconds of each other.

2. Data sent and received over the HD-PLC network employs AES 128-bit

encryption, however we cannot guarantee that data will not be intercepted by

a third party.

3. For security, reset your adaptors (see page 14) in the following situations.

• If you are concerned that another adaptor may have been accidentally

registered to your master (for example, the adaptor of someone who

lives in the same apartment building as you), reset each of your

adaptors and register them again.

• If you discard an adaptor, give an adaptor to someone else to use, or

send an adaptor for servicing, reset the adaptor first.

• If you lose an adaptor, reset your remaining adaptors and register them

again.

Security notices for when sending an adaptor for

service

Please note the following when sending an adaptor for servicing.

• Reset the adaptor before sending it for servicing.

• After your master adaptor is serviced, you must register all your

terminals to the master again.

• After a terminal adaptor is serviced, you must register the terminal to the

master again.

Introduction

How does it work?

Each HD-PLC adaptor has an AC cord that plugs into a wall outlet. This connection

not only powers the adaptor, but also allows the adaptor to communicate with the

other adaptors in your home using your existing electrical wiring. Each adaptor also

has a LAN jack, which connects each adaptor to your broadband router, hub,

computer, network printer, network camera, etc.

Once your adaptors are registered, simply plug them into the wall outlets around

your home. (The included adaptors are already registered. To register additional

adaptors, see page 15.) Finally, connect the master adaptor to your broadband

internet router or modem, and then connect the other adaptors to your network

devices (computers, network printers, network cameras, etc.). When you’re

finished, your network devices will be able to access the internet as well as each

other.

Example of an integrated HD-PLC network

Master and terminal adaptors

Before using your adaptors, it is important to understand the concept of a “master”

adaptor and a “terminal” adaptor.

An HD-PLC network contains at least 2 adaptors. One (and only one) adaptor

must be configured as the master. All other adaptors are configured as

terminals. (A maximum of 15 terminals per network is recommended.) An adaptor

is configured as either a master or a terminal during registration (see page 15). For

simplicity, we recommend configuring the adaptor that is directly connected to one

of your router’s LAN ports as the master.

Installation

Placing the adaptors

Refer to the information on page 6 when selecting a location to place your

adaptors.

Note

• If you have purchased additional adaptors, make sure you have registered

them to the master (see page 15) before placing them where you plan to use

them.

1. Connect the AC cord of each adaptor to a wall outlet near where you plan to

use it.

2. Confirm that the PLC indicator of each adaptor lights in blue when you plug

the adaptors into the wall outlets.

•IfthePLC indicators do not light in blue, see page 16.

After you have placed the adaptors where you plan to use them and plugged them

into the wall outlets, test the terminal’s network speed (see page 12).
