Glossary
♦ HCNA | HomePNA3.1 over coaxial cable |
♦ MDU | Multiple Dwelling Unit |
♦ Coax | Coaxial cable |
♦ SyncMode | HCNA device operates in Synchronous mode |
♦ AsyncMode | HCNA device operates in Asynchronous mode |
♦ Master | Master HCNA device in one coax network |
♦ Slave | Slave HCNA device in one coax network |
♦ EP | Endpoint, equivalent to Slave HCNA device, CC101 |
♦ Smart EP | Smart Endpoint, as CC101. CC100 could configure Smart EP’s Ethernet properties. |
♦ QoS | Quality of Service |
♦ Mixer | Coax device sums two or more signals into one |
♦ Splitter | Coax device divides a signal into two or more smaller and approximately equal signals. |
♦ Combiner | Coax device adds several discrete signal inputs to one and has high isolation between inputs |
♦ Duplexer | Coax device separates 2 signals within the same band |
♦ Diplexer | Coax device separates 2 signals in different bands |
♦ Tap | Coax device uses for matching impedance or connecting subscriber drops |
♦ dB | Decibel, to express either a gain or loss power ration(log) after the signal has been transmitted |
