Introduction
This document describes some of the features of an InCoax D2501 model. It also includes a technical
specification, as well as information about the regulatory statements and the proper disposal of the
equipment.
This specific model of the
DPU
provides a throughput of 2.5 Gbps (max. 3.2 Gbps) on the coax port.
4.1
InCoax D2501 MoCA Access DPU System
InCoax™ is a provider of broadband access solutions leveraging existing in-building coaxial cable networks.
The InCoax D2501 MoCA Access DPU System consists of a
Persistent Management Agent Aggregator (PMAA)
if
NETCONF/YANG communication protocol is used
or Automatic Configuration Server (ACS)
if Configuration
WLAN Management Protocol (CWMP) is used, hereafter called
Management System
, which manages the
DPUs
installed in, or near, buildings and
Modems
installed in the customers’ homes. An illustration of the
Management System
can be seen in
Figure 1
. The
Modem
is easily connected by the customers without any
requirements for customer configuration. This architecture makes the MoCA Access DPU System very flexible
supporting different types of networks. Once the
DPU
has been installed in, or near, the building the only
required operation to connect new customers is to provide them with a
Modem
. (Please refer to the InCoax
handbook
System Design Guidelines for Cable Technicians
for guidance.) As soon as the
Modem
has been
connected to the coaxial network, it will automatically be detected and configured by the
DPU
through the
Management System
(if such setup has been enabled in the Management System).
The typical MoCA Access DPU System consists of distributed
Management System Architecture
which handles
thousands of
DPUs
and millions of
Modems
. If there is a legacy cable-TV service in the building the TV signal
must be combined with the broadband signal using the
Diplexer Filter
. The
Management System
is used as a
customer configuration, monitoring, and provisioning tool through a web interface or be accessed by
provisioning system or Operating Support System through NETCONF or TR-069 interface.

4.2
The DPU
The
DPU
acts as a bridge between the incoming XGS-PON, GPON, EPON or Ethernet access network and
customers’ Ethernet
Modem
port, using the in-building coaxial network as transport for data traffic to the
Modems
. The
DPU
communicates with all
Modems
, over dedicated RF bands, in the coaxial network to manage
their individual configuration, enforces traffic, and security policies. It also collects and stores traffic statistics
data from the network.
