Ethernet over Coax, or MoCA, uses existing coaxial TV wiring that is already in your home as an in-home backbone to extend Ethernet or wireless network to more corners of the home. Your home’s coaxial wiring becomes a high-performance Ethernet network, giving you an easy way to connect your home entertainment devices or extend your WiFi signal.

Coaxial cable can easily be converted to serve as a data network. You can consider every coaxial drop in your house a potential future Ethernet drop, no cutting up drywall or cable pulling required. The secret sauce is MoCA, the coaxial data network standard named after the Multimedia over Coax Alliance.

MoCA adaptors in a home network can adapt an Ethernet cable to a coax cable and then back to an Ethernet cable. However, MoCA adapters allow for a multi-point network, connecting multiple Ethernet cables as a hub does. You can use MoCA Home adapters for extending any network or internet connection over a coax cable.
