Description

This SOC white box IP extracted from the production chip.The MoCA (Mutimedia Over Cortex Allience) Baseband PHY and Mac SoC, in conjunction with the companion chip power amplifier and low noise amplifier for MoCA, connects STB back-end devices to the home MoCA network as defined by the MoCA 2.0 standard. The MoCA Baseband PHY and Mac is fully backward compatible with MoCA 1.1 standard Supporting Bonded-channel and Turbo modes, offers a high-speed throughput from 400 Mb/s to 1 Gb/s.

The MoCA Baseband PHY and Mac and Power amplifier can be used as well in standalone applications like Dongles or host. The device comes with a complete firmware and software suite included in a Product design kit.
