Service provider
Triple-play bundling
(IPTV/TelcoTV,
Cable MSOs)
Video Networking Requirements
• High Performance with wide outlet coverage
• > 100Mbps net throughput at >97% of outlets
• Inherent low BER/PER
• Cannot rely on retransmissions
• Low Latency independent of network load
• No time to retransmit video frames
• Coexist with Cable, DBS, Terrestrial, Telco
• Spectrum support for future performance increases
(>1Gbps)
Installation Objectives
• Easy installation in the home
• Low sensitivity to home coax topology
• Be able to seamlessly support any type of Coax
topography
• Any network node can be connected to any
outlet in the house
• Minimize need to replace splitters or add
new wires
The MoCA Connected Home
The Organization
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Established in January 2004 by some of the most respected service
providers and OEMs in the world.
Promote the distribution of multiple streams of HD content throughout the
home using already existent coax.
Only alliance with appeal to all three pay TV segments (telco, cable, DBS).
Full deployment (Verizon’s FiOS TV) with more than 2.7 million subs.
DIRECTV, Comcast, TWC, Cox and Bright House Networks publicly
committed to using MoCA in their networks. More than a dozen other
operators in trials.
More than 60 certified products (STBs, ONTs, BHRs, ECBs)
Recently established liaison agreement with HomePlug.
Incorporated into DLNA’s Interoperability Guidelines
Member of OPASTCO (U.S. tier 2 telcos and cableco) and CEDIA
(installers and integrators).
MoCA 1.0/1.1
•
•
•
•
No new wires or interference with other technologies and mediums.
Complementary to wireless—extends wireless backbone in home.
Operates with other services on the same coax
Field tests in 250 homes validated net throughputs of more than
100 Mb/s in 97 percent of outlets.
• Only Alliance to conduct and publish field tests.
• MoCA 1.1 capable of 175 Mbps net throughputs, PQoS bandwidth
management and 16 node network extension
MoCA Technology Features
•
•
•
•
MAC throughput including 175 Mb/s (MoCA v1.1)
Flexible spectrum usage – 50 MHz coexisting with Cable or Satellite
Support for 16 nodes (MoCA v1.1)
PHY is Bitloaded OFDM – optimizes PHY rate for any channel
• Pre-equalization allows simple Reed Solomon FEC
• Fully coordinated and synchronized network
• Transmission slots are assigned by a Network Controller (NC) per RequestGrant mechanism
• NC is automatically selected
• Preferred NC can be selected by higher layer applications (MoCA v1.1)
• Probing mechanism allows performance optimization per connection
• Quality of Service (QoS)
• Prioritized QoS – differentiated service for video, voice and gaming
• Parameterized QoS – bandwidth reservation per flows (MoCA v1.1)
• Management interface with detailed characteristics

Single Channel
Reduced to single small supplier
Requires Coax to be viable, but not designed/tuned for coax
Conflicts with DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS
MoCA 2.0 in Development
• Two performance modes:
• 400 and 800 Mb/s actual throughputs
• 700 and 1.4 Gb/s PHY rates
• Two low power modes:
• Sleep and standby
• Address power consumption in entire network
• Backward compatible with previous versions without
degradation in performance.
• Protects investment in current equipment. No firmware or swap out
necessary.
• MoCA 1.0/1.1 meet needs of operators now. MoCA 2.0
meets needs of operators tomorrow.
Verizon: Video will be
our core product
•
From Advanced Television, September 21, 2009:
•
Verizon CEO Ivan Seidenberg says video, not voice, will be the core product over his expanding
fibre network. He said he no longer worried about looking for the "inflection point" in the loss of
access lines.
"I don't care about that any more, I am going to focus on driving FiOS penetration and taking
costs out," he said, adding that he felt "liberated".
He expected the FiOS network would stretch to 70 per cent of Verizon’s fixed-line customer
base.
He said that with TV, the PC and the Internet converging, the carrier’s future would be in selling
video services, such as interactive TV, bundled with wireless voice.
"So what I need to do is get ourselves focused around the following idea, that video is going to
be the core product in the fixed line business. We are going to bundle it with wireless, we are
going to integrate software over all the screens.“

DIRECTV: Simplified Installation
•
From 26-Jan-2010 Press Release:
• "By integrating MoCA technology into our STBs
along with the existing deployment of the Single
Wire Multiswitch, we will set ourselves apart from
the competition as a leading provider of connected
home technology," said Romulo Pontual, chief
technology officer at DIRECTV. "This is part of our
overall strategy to simplify the installation process
and create a reliable video distribution system for
our customers who want to enjoy a connected
home lifestyle."
