Verkkosilta ALLNET ALL-GHN102-COAX langallinen IEEE 802.3ab

The ALLNET ALL-GHN102-COAX Gigabit Ethernet Bridge uses existing coaxial TV wiring to extend a home network without new cabling. It implements G.hn technology to provide up to 500 Mbps over TV coax as a home-network backbone and offers two Gigabit Ethernet ports for connecting devices such as PCs, set-top boxes, smart TVs or Wi‑Fi access points. The device is IEEE-compliant and designed for low power consumption, includes a built-in filter to reduce interference with TV signals, and supports basic traffic management features for stable network operation.

Advantages

Provides fast network extension via existing TV coaxial cabling with no rewiring required. Two 100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports allow direct connection of Ethernet devices. Energy-efficient Ethernet support reduces power usage. Built-in filtering helps eliminate noise from TV signals. Supports up to 15 devices in a coax network and includes QoS, VLAN tagging and IGMP snooping for traffic control and multicast handling.

Suitable for

• Extending wired network access in homes using existing coax installations
• Connecting set-top boxes, smart TVs or Wi‑Fi access points in rooms without Ethernet wiring
• Creating a coax-based backbone for multiple network nodes (up to 15 devices)

Key specifications

• Model: ALLNET ALL-GHN102-COAX
• G.hn throughput: up to 500 Mbps over coax (6 MHz–76 MHz)
• Ethernet: 2 × RJ45 ports, 100 / 1000 Mbps
• Standards: IEEE 802.3u, IEEE 802.3ab, IEEE 802.3az, IEEE 802.1p
• Power: 12 V AC input, 4 W power consumption
• Color: White
• Max devices on coax network: up to 15

How to use

Connect the ALL-GHN102-COAX to the household coaxial outlet and plug in the power supply. Use the RJ45 Ethernet ports to connect local devices (PC, TV, set-top box or Wi‑Fi AP) with standard Ethernet cables. Install a second G.hn bridge on another coax outlet in the desired room if you need to provide Ethernet there; the devices will form a coaxial backbone automatically. Monitor link and status LEDs to confirm successful connections.

Recommendations

Place the bridge near the coaxial wall outlet and avoid placing heavy RF-emitting equipment nearby. For optimal performance, keep the number of splitters and degraded coax segments to a minimum and ensure connected devices support Gigabit Ethernet if full throughput is required.
