This chapter describes the features of your HomePNA3.1 over Coax MDU Master Bridge -- CC100. Refer to
“HomePNA3.1 over Coax” as HCNA from this point.
Features
♦ One HCNA port for driving HomePNA3.1 signal into existing coaxial cable
♦ One TV/Antenna port for TV set connection or for TV signal from VHF/UHF antenna/CATV
♦ Two fast Ethernet ports with Auto-Detect MDIX Function(Auto Crossover) and Auto-Negotiating Half/Full
Duplex 10M/100M for expansion or link to FTTx/xDSL Modem
♦ One reset button
♦ Priority queue based QoS support for 802.1p, IP TOS, UDP/TCP protocols
♦ Support for up to 31 end point (Endpoint, as CC101 Slave Unit) concurrent connections
♦ Built-in diagnostic function for individual end point connection
♦ Built-in web server and telnet server to support remote configuration via web browser or telnet protocol
♦ Supports remote HTTP/TFTP upgrade function for system firmware and HCNA driver
♦ Supports HCNA driver upgrade on-line for connected end points

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
