Powerline Music Extender XAU2511 
Ethernet Port
The Powerline Music Extender XAU2511 uses an Ethernet port to convert a standard 
electrical wall outlet into a high-speed network connection. The high-speed network 
connection brings Internet connectivity to any device with an Ethernet port, such as a game 
console, Blu-ray™ player, smart TV, HD set-top box, network DVR, or computer. All devices 
on your home network that are plugged into a Powerline adapter or extender are 
interoperable.
USB Port
The Powerline Music Extender XAU2511 uses a USB port to connect your USB devices to 
your home network. Connected devices can use the ReadySHARE music and networking 
features. The ReadySHARE music features let you connect audio speakers to your network 
and play music wirelessly. The ReadySHARE networking features let you connect USB 
printers and USB hard drives to your home network so they can be accessed through WiFi.
Filtered AC Socket
The filtered AC socket can remove some electrical noise that might affect Powerline 
performance. Plugging the power plugs of nearby devices into the filtered AC socket 
improves performance.

How the Music Extender Fits in Your Network
You can use one or more Music Extenders to extend your home network anywhere in your 
house using your electrical power lines. 
A Powerline network consists of two or more compatible Powerline devices that communicate 
with each other. One of the Powerline devices is connected with an Ethernet cable to your 
router so that the Powerline network is linked to your local area network (LAN). That way 
each Powerline device can communicate with the router and use its Internet connection.
