SOLVING THE LAST MILE CHALLENGE

The market is hungry for growth but the existing technologies create a significant growth barrier

The InCoax technology has become an important complement to fiber for closing the digital divide, when fiber access in existing MDUs is limited by construction, cost or preservation reasons.

By reusing existing property coaxial networks for high-performance MultiGigabit broadband access, these obstacles can be overcome for residents to be connected both faster and at a significantly reduced cost.

The MoCA Access™ 2.5 technology is a high performance, future proof, reliable and cost-effective complement to fiber, that reduces installation time and improves take-up rate, to boost digital inclusion and Internet access for all.

Fiber Access Extension Over Coax

InCoax’s Fiber Access Extension technology solves the ‘Last Mile Challenge’ of providing Gigabit or MultiGigabit broadband services to Multi-Dwelling Units (MDUs).

It uses the existing in-house coax cable infrastructure, positioning it a high performance, future proof, reliable and cost-effective complement to fiber, that reduces installation time and improves take-up rate. Subsequently it increases property reach and grows the addressable market size for operators, to boost digital inclusion and Internet access for all.

The modems can be self-installed by tenants, saving time and money when installing and launching services. It can also be rolled-out in stages which shortens time to revenue, lowers initial CAPEX and contributes to faster overall Return on investment (ROI).

MoCA Access™ 2.5 standard

The MoCA Access 2.5 standard was created to solve the Last mile challenge. It is capable of 2.5 Gbps data speed using the existing in-building coaxial cabling. 

MoCA Access is a point-to-point and point-to-multipoint system standard serving up to 31 modems (clients) per channel. It is designed to co-exist with legacy services such as cable- and satellite-TV, DOCSIS, and cellular (4G/5G) technologies.

The operating frequency range is 400 – 1675 MHz. It has low latency (delay less than 5ms) and is nearly symmetrical, throughput is up to 2.5 Gbps downstream and 2 Gbps upstream.

A COMPLETE RANGE OF PRODUCTS
FOR MULTIGIGABIT BROADBAND ACCESS

MoCA Access 2.5 Control units & Data processing units (DPU)

InCoax Control Units and DPUs are used for fiber access and fixed wireless access (FWA) extension deployments in MDUs. They covert and extend the broadband communication to the InCoax Access (NTE) modems situated in the apartments. The technology is based on the MoCA Access™ 2.5 standard supporting up to 2.5 Gbps symmetrical data rates with low latency on each channel in point-to-point (P2P) or point-to-multipoint (P2MP) coaxial networks.

The InCoax technology has a powerful web-based interface for existing operator provisioning system integration through standard protocols such as NETCONF/YANG and SNMP. Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) integration with the InCoax Element Management System allows for fast deployment of systems and effective use of human resources that saves time and money.

InCoax D2501 DPU

Fiber access extension for small MDUs in P2MP coaxial networks

MoCA Access™ 2.5 DPU for fiber access extension deployments in small MDUs using the existing in-building coaxial networks for Internet communication. Supports up 2.5 Gbps symmetrical data rates with low latency to maximum 16 InCoax Access (NTE) modems in a shared point-to-multipoint network. D2501 supports several up-link options as XGS-PON, GPON, Active Ethernet with 1 and 10 Gigabit Northbound link speed. IP67 enclosure with passive cooling for outdoor or indoor installation.

It is cost-effective and rapid to deploy. It can co-exist with legacy TV services and DOCSiS 3.0 for faster transformation and increased take-up rate.

D2501 is a robust and reliable FTTep (Fiber-To-The-extension-point) network element that can be deployed in pedestals, on poles, in manholes, or within the building – anywhere there is broadband (fiber/FWA) and the in-building coaxial network access. It is powered locally or remotely by an InCoax Power Inserter/Extractor connected to the network.

Several management options are available to support current management models over NETCONF/YANG or operator Persistent Management Agent Aggregator (PMAA). For monitoring it supports SNMP.

    FAQ

    We are complimentary. You can keep your existing TV-services and upgrade to 2.5 Gbps broadband with minimal disturbance and at a significantly lower deployment cost.

    Recently we were elected to the Board of Directors of Broadband Forum. Also, we have had a seat on the Board of MoCA® since the beginning of 2018. These types of forums are important as we can influence the establishment of standards and remain at the forefront of technological development.

    We are proud to be using the existing infrastructure. It is smart and sustainable to utilize the coaxial cables as the main source of fiber access extension. This is a major advantage compared to most alternative solutions. Also, we strive to reduce the amount of energy/power that is required for all our products.
    With in:xtnd we can make the Gigabit society a reality today without complications. Gigabit networks can be available to everyone, not only to those where an FTTH solution is available.
