Gigabit Speed from Every Socket: Your Home Network Without Limits
No more weak WiFi and annoying cable laying. The FRITZ!Powerline 1220 Set transforms every socket in your home into a lightning-fast and secure Network connection. Whether in the basement, attic, or garage – wherever you have a socket, you now have a stable Gigabit LAN connection. This solution from the Powerline / DLAN area is the perfect method to extend your existing Network via the power line and reliably supply even the remotest corners of your house.
Perfect for 4K Streaming and Online Gaming Without Stuttering
Data-intensive applications place the highest demands on your home network. The FRITZ!Powerline 1220 Set is built precisely for this. With a gross speed of up to 1,200 Mbps and integrated data prioritization (QoS), video streams and internet telephony are given preference. The result: buttery-smooth 4K streaming without buffering and online gaming with the lowest latencies for the decisive advantage in the game. Say goodbye to lags and connection drops.
Maximum Connectivity Thanks to Two Gigabit LAN Ports
One port is good, two are better. Each adapter in the FRITZ!Powerline 1220 Set has two Gigabit LAN ports. This allows you to connect several devices directly via cable, such as your smart TV and a game console in the living room, or a PC and a network printer in the office. You save yourself the purchase of an additional Ethernet Switch and benefit from full speed for every connected device.
Stable Connection Thanks to Intelligent 2x2 MIMO Technology
What makes this set particularly powerful is the 2x2 MIMO technology. Instead of using only two wires of the power line, the technology also incorporates the protective earth conductor. This creates two parallel data streams, which increase data throughput by up to 60% and make the connection significantly more robust against interference. This ensures stable and fast transmission even over long distances and complex power grids.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Very high and stable performance thanks to 1,200 Mbps and 2x2 MIMO technology, ideal for 4K streaming and gaming.
- Pro: Two Gigabit LAN ports per adapter allow direct connection of multiple devices without an additional switch.
- Pro: Integrated socket with mains filter ensures that no power outlet is lost and interference is minimized.
- Pro: Extremely simple Plug & Play setup with strong 128-bit AES encryption ex works.
- Note: This set does not generate its own WiFi signal; it is exclusively for extending the wired network.
- Note: Performance depends on the quality and complexity of the house's electrical system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I also operate the FRITZ!Powerline 1220 Set in a multiple socket outlet?
No, for optimal performance and stability, the Powerline adapter should always be plugged directly into a wall socket. However, a multiple socket outlet can be connected to the adapter's integrated socket.
Does the Powerline set also work across different electrical circuits and fuses?
Yes, in principle, Powerline also works across different fuses, as long as they belong to the same electricity meter. However, every fuse box or RCD (residual current device) on the transmission path can attenuate the data rate.
Is the FRITZ!Powerline 1220 Set compatible with Powerline adapters from other manufacturers?
Yes, the set is compatible with all Powerline adapters that support the HomePlug AV standard. However, for maximum performance and security, the use of adapters from the same manufacturer is recommended.
How many Powerline adapters can I use in a network at most?
Theoretically, up to 16 adapters can be operated simultaneously in a Powerline network. However, the total bandwidth is shared among all active adapters.
What does 2x2 MIMO technology mean for this adapter?
2x2 MIMO technology uses the protective earth conductor of the power line for data transmission, in addition to the phase and neutral conductors. This creates two parallel data streams, which makes the connection more stable, extends its range, and makes it faster.
Do I need to install software for use?
No, no software installation is required for basic functionality. The adapters connect automatically and securely after plugging them in. The optional 'FRITZ!Powerline' software offers advanced diagnostic options.
