As far as I understand this technology (It's been in the US for some 
time but only recently been introduced to Australia), it is Operating 
system agnostic. All the "smarts" are in the plugs and you simply plug 
in a CAT-5 UTP cable (ie standard ethernet nowadays) into the plug at 
each end and it's as if you had run a cable through from Room A to Room B.

You still need ethernet cards in your computers at each end - and if 
there's not a switch at one end, a UTP cross over cable as well.
