MIMO: Multiple Input Multiple Output:

Telephone line: Here, all four telephone
a
lines are used as pairs. The speed between
the router and another LAN device with an
Ethernet port can reach up to 1 Gbps and
the range can be more than 100 metres.
Expansion of the Ethernet WAN connection
using a telephone line
In this scenario, the G.hn signal is transmitted over
two or four telephone lines between the ONT and
router at a data rate of up to 1 Gbps. In the case of
two telephone lines, SISO mode is used. In MIMO
mode, all four lines are used as two pairs. MIMO
mode is recommended only for large distances ex-
ceeding 100 metres. For shorter distances, MIMO
transmission does not provide any higher data
rates.
Expansion of the Ethernet WAN connection
using a coaxial line
In this scenario, the G.hn signal is transmitted over
a standard coaxial cable between the ONT and the
router at a data rate of up to 1 Gbps. Only SISO
mode can be used. Due to the high RF perfor-
mance of coaxial cables and the very high amount
of insulation, long distances of several hundred
metres can be bridged at data rates of up to 1 Gbps
