TP-Link TL-PA4010 KIT AV500 Nano Powerline Adapter Starter Kit

TP-Link AV500 Nano Powerline Adapter Starter Kit (TL-PA4010 KIT) - 3 Years Local Warranty

The TL-PA4010 KIT is TP-Link's entry-level powerline pair: a nano-sized adapter that turns a wall point into a network port, built on the HomePlug AV standard. It is the least expensive way to get a stable wired link into a room the Wi-Fi does not reach, and its small body does not block the socket next to it.

HomePlug AV in a Nano Body

TP-Link's feature copy describes the adapter as HomePlug AV standard compliant with data transfer rates of up to 500 Mbps; that figure sits in the page's feature copy rather than in the specification table, so we quote it as TP-Link presents it. The published standards set is HomePlug AV, IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u. Note the generational point: this is HomePlug AV, not the newer AV2 used by the TL-PA7017 and TL-PA9020P families, though TP-Link's footnote confirms AV and AV2 adapters interoperate.

A 10/100 Ethernet Port, Not Gigabit

The Interface row is published as 1 x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Port. That is the practical ceiling for any single device plugged into the adapter, whatever the powerline headline figure says — the two numbers describe different segments of the path and TP-Link publishes both on the same page. For a smart TV, a set-top box, a printer or a games console this is ample; for a NAS transfer or a Gigabit desktop link, choose the TL-PA7017 KIT instead.

128-bit AES and One-Touch Pairing

Powerline traffic is encrypted with 128-bit AES. Setup is a single Pair button on each adapter; no software is required for a basic link. Power draw is published at a maximum of 4.60 W, typical 4.26 W and 0.88 W standby, measured at 220 V/50 Hz. The kit is rated up to 300 metres over existing electrical wiring.

The Widest Certification of the Range

This is the only model in TP-Link's current Singapore powerline line-up whose certification row reads CE, FCC and RoHS — the newer AV1000 and AV2000 models publish CE and RoHS only. Operating range is 0~40°C with storage from -40 to 70°C, and humidity 10%~90% non-condensing in operation.

Ideal For

Singapore homes and small offices that need one cheap, dependable wired drop for a TV, console or printer, rented units where cabling is not permitted, and buyers who want to test whether powerline works on their wiring before committing to a faster kit. Supplied by SourceIT with local Singapore warranty, GST invoice and volume pricing on request.

Note: TP-Link's package-content row for this kit is written in the singular and still lists a Resource CD, on a product whose current hardware revision is V3. We reproduce the row as published rather than correcting it, and state no quantity TP-Link does not state. The page publishes no net weight, no compatibility row and no QoS row; none is claimed here. This is also the only model in the range to publish two product images rather than a full gallery — that is TP-Link's published asset set, not an omission on our side.
