The Connections For The Connected Home Your media: where you want it, when you want it. Connectivity Living Booth, CES Booth 20300, South Hall January 8-11, 2013 www.mocalliance.org
The Organization •
Established in January 2004
•
Charter is to deliver multiple streams of HD video around the home
• •
Members consist of service providers, OEMs, CE vendors and chip suppliers in the digital entertainment distribution value chain. 50 members. Membership is open and ongoing
•
118 certified products (STBs, adapters, ONTs, gateways, routers, DVRs)
•
Only home entertainment networking standard in deployment by all three pay TV segments – cable, satellite and IPTV/telco – worldwide
•
In deployments or trials on five continents—North America, Latin America, Europe, South Africa, Asia
•
Products with MoCA technology found in all three channels—pay TV operators, custom installer, retail
•
Included in DLNA stack
•
Included in IEEE P1905.1
Technology advantages • Specifically designed for high performance and low latency applications (i.e, HD video distribution) • MoCA 1.1: 175 Mbps actual speed/net throughput • MoCA 2.0: 400 and 800 Mbps actual speed/net throughput • Leverages existing coax found in more than 90% of US homes. • No new wires • Coax also pervasive in Europe, Latin America and China
MoCA technology works • Occupies unused frequency spectrum…adjacent to cable television carriers. • Delivers highest combination of reliability and performance in industry. • MoCA 1.1: • • • •
Net Throughput = 175 Mb/s Low Packet Loss Rate (< 1e-5) Low Latency (< 10 ms) Low Jitter (< 1 ms)
“We expect the demand for broadband peripherals, especially those with integrated MoCA chips, to continue to increase globally as operators in all regions roll out new home automation, energy management, entertainment, and communications services that require high-end networking devices.” Infonetics talking with CE Pro, June 2012

The Connected Home
Typical Applications
MoCA is essentially Ethernet over coax • • • • • •
Multi-room DVR Gaming IPTV HD and Ultra HD (4K) OTT In-home backbone extending wireless/ Internet access
The Connected Home Narrative Value Proposition
Drawbacks
Wireless (WiFi)
Mobility
Reliability is a challenge Prone to interference Unlicensed band
Powerline (HomePlug)
Ubiquity of outlets Ease of use
Performance not on par with MoCA Prone to interference
Coax (MoCA)
Highest performance and reliability for HD video applications.
Reliant on coaxial outlet penetration
The Connected Home
Mobility, ubiquity, ease of use and reliability
No silver bullets Still need a wire
