The Connected Home Narrative Wireless (WiFi) Powerline (HomePlug) Value Proposition Mobility Ubiquity of outlets Ease of use Drawbacks Reliability is a challenge Prone to interference Unlicensed band Performance not on par with MoCA Prone to interference Coax (MoCA) Proven performance and reliability. In use by all three pay TV segments. MoCA 2.0 ratified Interoperable with 1.0/1.1 Reliant on coaxial outlet penetration The Connected Home Mobility, ubiquity, ease of use and reliability No silver bullets Still need a wire
MoCA Technology Value Proposition No new wires. Uses existing coax. Operates at higher frequency range 500-1500MHZ No interference with other technologies and mediums. Complementary to wireless. In-home backbone extending wireless capability. Independent field tests validating all claims regarding high performance and high reliability. 110 Mbps in 97 percent of all outlets 250 homes in the US
Pay TV Operator Adoption and Interest Only home entertainment networking standard in deployment by all three pay TV segments cable, satellite and IPTV/telco worldwide. All cable MSOs and satellite operators in the US, and Verizon and many smaller telcos. All cable MSOs in Canada Interest from pay TV operators in Brazil Trials in China and South Africa
MoCA 1.1 MoCA offers performance suited for transporting multimedia content Net Throughput = 175 Mb/s (MoCA 1.1) Low Packet Loss Rate (< 1e-5) Low Latency (< 10 ms) Low Jitter (< 1 ms)
MoCA 2.0 Two performance modes Baseline Mode 400+ Mbps MAC throughput 700 Mbps PHY Rate Single 100 MHz Channel Enhanced Mode 800+ Mbps MAC throughput 1.4 Gbps PHY Rate Two bonded 100 MHz Channels ( Channel Bonding ) Turbo mode for a point-to-point configuration that allows 500+ Mbps MAC throughput between two connected devices when operating in Baseline mode 1+ Gbps MAC throughput when operating in Enhanced mode.
MoCA 2.0 Energy savings Sleep and standby power modes Address power consumption in entire network Backward interoperable with MoCA 1.0/1.1 Protects investment in current equipment. No firmware or swap out necessary. Enhanced reliability One error packet in 100 million 3.5 ms latency Expanded operating frequency from 500 1650 MHz

Summary The connected home is a blend of technologies and mediums providing mobility, ubiquity, ease of use and reliability. TVs are the next device to be integrated into the digital home. MoCA connects TVs and other devices that access and distribute HD video and programming. Wireless is pervasive but you will still need a wire. For these video-centric devices and services, performance and reliability is critical. MoCA is the king of performance and reliability.
