Product Overview
MoCA
MoCA technology bridges Ethernet traffic onto the coaxial cable network. MoCA 2.0 operates from the
following frequencies:
•
975 to 1025 MHz on the MoCA WAN channel when a MoCA 1.1 BHR is present
•
1125 to 1175 MHz on the MoCA LAN channel when communicating with MoCA 1.x devices
•
1125 to 1225 MHz on the MoCA LAN channel when communicating with any MoCA 2.0 devices
•
1350 to 1675 MHz on the MoCA WAN channel when a MoCA 2.0 BHR is present
Each MoCA set-top requires an IP address for configuration and management, but do not require any other IP
services. To minimize network IP address requirements, the MoCA uses the Link-Local IP address space.
Link-Local IP addressing enables MoCA set-tops to operate on a private local area network (LAN) using a
defined range of reserved IP addresses. The MoCA set-tops in a home automatically self-assign an IP
address in the range above 169.254.1.18.
The Link-Local address space is registered with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). For detailed
information about Link-Local addressing, visit www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3927.html.
