INTRODUCTION
This HCNA (HomePNA3.0 over Coax) to Ethernet
bridge connects any Ethernet device to a high speed
access network or to a LAN for Internet access. This
bridge brings you the newest Ethernet compatible
technology that uses the coaxial cable as the
network's physical wiring thereby eliminating the
need to install new wiring. It is designed to operate on
the coaxial cable installed in building.
This bridge allows you to connect PCs and Ethernet
enabled devices, such as STB and VoIP gateway, to a
LAN by simply plugging into the existing coaxial F-
Type connector.
