6. Use in the local network
„Point-to-Point“: in pairs
„Multipoint-to-multipoint“: up to 16 Modems
7. Use for the distribution of a fibre optic connection („Point-to-Point“)
8. Installation notes
The G.hn modem can be connected directly to a coaxial cable or to a wall socket (multimedia socket). When connecting
to a wall socket, use the DATA connector or an equivalent one that has return channel capability in the frequency range
5-200MHz.
The coaxial cables can be connected via splitters, pass-through wall outlets, feed-in crossovers and SAT multi-switches
with return channel capability.
Maximum range of the G.hn connection depends essentially on the type of cable used. Typical values for RG-6 coaxial
cable (8dB attenuation at 200MHz): maximum G.hn bandwidth of 1600 Mbit/s is possible up to approx. 300 metres, the
G.hn connection - up to approx. 1300 metres.
In the web interface of each modem, the negotiated bandwidths to all other G.hn bridges in the network can be queried
(see point 10).
Parallel operation with SAT-TV (950-2150MHz) and with DVB-T2 (470-690MHz) on a coaxial line is possible without
restrictions.
Parallel operation with cable TV (DVB-C) is possible in the frequency range from 250MHz.
Parallel operation with cable Internet (DOCSIS) is not possible because the frequency ranges of G.hn (2-200MHz) and
DOCSIS (5-862MHz) overlap.
