LN-553FR Overview
With the LN-553 Socket Homeplug 500 Mbps Dual Pack you can extend your home network, ideal for areas where you have insufficient wireless coverage. Take advantage of your home's existing electrical wiring to connect an additional device such as a desktop PC, a notebook, a Smart TV or a Blu-ray player to the internet without the need to lay cables. Thanks to the integrated power socket, you don’t lose an electrical outlet.
The LN-553 Socket Homeplug 500 Mbps Dual Pack contains two homeplugs to start your powerline network. Connect one to the router and the other one to the device that you would like to add to your home network.
The great thing about homeplugs is the ease of installation: because this solution makes use of the electrical wiring there is no need to install cables. This allows you to share files and peripherals among all connected devices at speeds of up to 500 Mbps in the blink of an eye — ideal for high speed internet and media applications.
Create a secure home network with just one push of the security button. The power-saving function ensures that the homeplugs automatically switch to standby when the connected devices are switched off. This reduces power consumption by around 60%.
This product comes with the extensive 10-year Sitecom warranty. Simply activate the long-term warranty by registering your product within 3 weeks of purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Sitecom LN-553FR utilize existing electrical wiring for network connectivity? +
The LN-553FR Homeplug kit uses Powerline communication technology to turn your home’s existing electrical outlets into an Ethernet network. By plugging one unit into a wall socket near your router and connecting it via Ethernet, and the other near your device, data is transmitted over the electrical copper wiring, bypassing the need for long cables or unstable wireless signals.
What is the maximum data transfer rate supported by the LN-553FR kit? +
The Sitecom LN-553FR is rated for a maximum data transfer speed of 500 Mbps. This throughput is ideal for bandwidth-intensive tasks like streaming high-definition video, online gaming, and large file transfers, ensuring a stable connection throughout your home environment where traditional Wi-Fi might struggle with interference or range limitations.
Does the LN-553FR require any complex software installation or configuration? +
Installation is designed to be straightforward with a plug-and-play approach. Once the units are plugged into your power outlets and connected to your devices with Ethernet cables, they automatically detect each other. Most users find they are up and running within minutes without needing to manually configure IP addresses or complex network settings.
Can I expand my network by adding more Homeplug adapters to my existing LN-553FR setup? +
Yes, you can easily scale your network by purchasing additional compatible Homeplug adapters. By pairing the new units with your existing LN-553FR network, you can extend wired connectivity to other rooms. It is generally recommended to stick to the same product series or standard to ensure maximum compatibility and optimal performance across all linked adapters.
Will the LN-553FR work if the two wall sockets are on different electrical circuits? +
Performance can vary significantly depending on your home's electrical wiring architecture. While Powerline technology can bridge different circuits, connectivity and speed may decrease if the signal must pass through a circuit breaker panel. For the best possible performance, try to keep the adapters on the same electrical phase whenever feasible.
What types of devices can I connect to the Ethernet port on the LN-553FR? +
The integrated Ethernet port on the adapter is compatible with any device featuring an RJ45 network interface. This includes smart TVs, game consoles, desktop PCs, network-attached storage (NAS) drives, and VoIP phones. It provides a stable, low-latency connection that is superior to typical wireless connections for stationary entertainment and computing hardware.
Does the LN-553FR include built-in security features to protect my network traffic? +
To prevent unauthorized access, the LN-553FR supports AES encryption. This ensures that the data being transmitted over your electrical wires is encrypted, keeping your network traffic private from others who might be on the same electrical grid. You can typically activate or manage this security through the physical pairing button found on the adapter housing.
How do I troubleshoot if my LN-553FR units are not establishing a connection? +
If units fail to sync, ensure they are plugged directly into wall outlets rather than power strips or surge protectors, as these can filter out the high-frequency network signals. Try resetting the devices using the pairing button and test them in outlets located in the same room to confirm that the hardware is functioning correctly before moving them to permanent locations.
How can I request a bulk quote for multiple Sitecom LN-553FR kits? +
