![]() ![]() ![]() I plan to add two POE/LPF/MoCA filters, one at each end to stop the MoCA signal from reaching the preamp/coupler/antennas and the TV/AVR tuners. These adapters (Actiontec) appear to use the latest MaxLinear MxL93712 chipset.Īpplication will be over coax dedicated to MoCA and two OTA TV antennas (coupled and preamped no cable modem/DOCSIS signaling). 'Good as' including Actiontec-sourced firmware and documentation. ScreenBeam appears to be a retail outlet for Actiontec(?), so I'm assuming these adapters are nearly the same/good as Actiontex ECB7250s sold to ISPs, etc. MoCA adapters are generally backward compatible but will run at lower speeds when used with older versions.I'm about to order a set of ScreenBeam MoCA 2.5 adapters ECB7250:Ī: ScreenBeam Bonded MoCA 2.5 Network Adapter for Highest Speed Internet, Ethernet Over Coax - Starter Kit (Model: ECB7250K02).Using MoCA over RG-6 coax cables is best, but it may still work over older cables.Coax amplifiers and splitters will need to support the frequencies of up to 1625 MHz used by MoCA.If this sounds too advanced for you, you could consider Powerline adapters, which I discuss in MoCA vs. In this configuration, you would need at least two MoCA adapters. Xfinity uses 1150 MHz frequencies for MoCA on LAN networks. The most straightforward workaround is to prevent communication with the Fios/ Xfinity devices by configuring the MoCA adapters to use D-band high-end frequencies at 1400 Mhz and above. Fios/Xfinity: Some people have experienced compatibility issues when using Xfinity DVRs, as they communicate using MoCA frequencies.MoCA is incompatible with Satellite TV, Dish, Direct TV, and AT&T U-verse TV, which use the same frequency bands.MoCA POE Filters block 1 GHz frequencies and also reflect them, which improves MoCA communication.įind MoCA 2.5 Adapters on Amazon (affiliate link).įind MoCA POE Filters on Amazon (affiliate link).įind MoCA-compatible Coax Splitters on Amazon (affiliate link).Ĭheck out my Ultimate Cable Internet Wiring & Optimization Guide for additional cable setup guidance. Bonding 2 and 5 channels for bonded 2.0 and 2.5, respectively, net typical max of 8 Mbps 10 if TURBO. ![]() More generally, for MoCA 2.0 & 2.5, the expected throughput is 400 Mbps per channel, with a 25 bump if able to operate in TURBO mode. To ensure that the MoCA communication is not accessible by a neighbor, you'll need to ensure that the coax cable coming into your home has a MoCA POE Filter. The typical MoCA 2.5 max throughput in a multi-node setup is 2000 Mbps.If your MoCA adapters don't come with coax splitters and you are connecting multiple cables, you'll need MoCA compatible coax splitters that support up to 1625 MHz. ![]()
