Overlapping Powerline networks
It is possible to create multiple Powerline networks on the same electrical system
separated and grouped by different network encryption keys. The Powerline networks
will work and communicate independently of each other which can provide security
between different groups of Powerline adapters. For example, if you have five
powerline adapters (Adapter A, Adapter B, Adapter C, Adapter D, Adapter E), you can
group Adapters A, B, and C together on one powerline network and group Adapters D
and E on a different Powerline network. Each group will use a different encryption key.
Note: It is recommended that only a maximum of up to 4 Powerline networks can be
created per electrical system. Any additional Powerline networks above the
recommended may result in significant degradation in Powerline performance.
