![]() The early stages of Fios began when Bell Atlantic (now Verizon Communications) was testing its video service " Stargazer" in 1995. ![]() the newish DOCSIS 3.1 spec overlaps with MoCA, so special handling is required if D3.1 frequencies above 1002 MHz are being used or if a D3.1-capable modem is sensitive to MoCA signals.Verizon Fios is a bundled internet access, telephone, and television service provided by Verizon Communications that operates over a fiber optical network within the United States. Xfinity X1: You'll want to review their services and equipment, as X1 TV gear communicates over MoCA, and it's possible that they have a Xfinity gateway with built-in MoCA bridging.ĭOCSIS 3.1: Splitters aside, be sure to check the specs of their modem & router, including checking the frequencies in use for the modem's download/upload channels. However, MoCA 2.5 bonds 5 100 MHz channels, so requires nearly the entire MoCA Extended Band D range, 1125-1675 MHz, and so the need for splitters explicitly optimized for MoCA becomes more important. MoCA 1.1 requires just 50 MHz of bandwidth at the low end of the MoCA frequency range, typically 1125-1175 MHz, so wouldn't experience significantly different loss from a cable signal at the top-end of the splitter's range, 1002 MHz. In a simple single-splitter setup, a sub-optimal MoCA splitter can be overcome via installation of a "PoE" MoCA filter on its input port however, as the coax hierarchy expands, port hopping of MoCA signals increases the need for splitters designed for MoCA, with decreased output port isolation in the MoCA frequency range. MoCA 1.1 vs 2.5 bandwidth requirements: As suggested, a MoCA connection should be possible over basic cable splitters, but the need for "designed for MoCA" splitters increases with (1) greater coax complexity and (2) use of later MoCA specs, especially MoCA 2.5. Powered amplifier?: Of more concern to MoCA connectivity than basic cable splitters is if a powered amplifier is installed, with greater concern if the amplifier is installed anywhere downstream of the central drop location so you'd want to determine whether any amplifier is in use, and evaluate its MoCA compatibility/hostility, per specs and location. "PoE" MoCA filter placement: Regardless of splitter specs, you'll still want to locate the top-level splitter in order to get a "PoE" MoCA filter installed, to secure the MoCA network signals inside the home however, this can usually be handled free-of-charge by a Comcast technician, prompted by a call to Comcast support. MoCA was designed, originally, to work with basic cable splitters, so a connection should be possible with just cable-rated splitters (5-1002 MHz) in play. u/RoweDent created this awesome resource on network theory u/tht1kidd_ has created a suggestion post regarding information everyone needs to provide when asking a question about their network There have been some excellent guides written in this sub, and we're always looking for more!
