TESTING METHODOLOGY

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   As already mentioned the performance of Powerline adapters is directly linked to the quality of the buildings electrical grid/wiring so the output speeds from such devices will most probably vary between new and old structures. Still the results recorded when testing Powerline adapters inside the same building should easily point out the best one and so to that end we used the well-known Passmark Performance Test to measure the data transfer rate in wired, wireless and Powerline modes with a distance of 15 meters between our Netgear DGN3500 Gigabit modem/router and the primary and secondary systems (30m in total between both systems). The network data transfer test was set to duration of 40 seconds and was repeated a total of 5 times after which the average numbers were recorded into our charts.

 

TEST RESULTS

   Although once again the recorded results are light years away from the maximum theoretical speed of 500Mbps (i have to admit that the office is not brand new so our electrical grid/wiring could be in better shape) still the TPL-402E2K set is the fastest one in our database (to date anyways).
