• Napájení (zelená): Svítí zeleně, když je zařízení zapnuté.
• Activity (Blue/Green): Blinks when data is being sent or received over the MoCA network.
• Link (Blue/Green): Blue indicates a 1000 Mbps Ethernet connection. Green indicates a 100 Mbps Ethernet connection.
• MoCA (Blue/Green): Blue indicates high-speed MoCA mode. Green indicates low-speed MoCA mode. Off if not connected to another MoCA device.

4. Průvodce nastavením

To establish a MoCA network, you typically need at least two MoCA adapters, or one adapter if your existing modem/router has built-in MoCA capabilities. Ensure your coaxial wiring is properly configured for MoCA.

4.1. Kontrolní seznam před instalací

• Coaxial Wiring: All coaxial outlets you intend to use must be wired to the same central splitter. Isolated outlets will prevent MoCA from functioning.
• MoCA-Compatible Splitters: For best results, ensure any coaxial splitters in your home are MoCA-compatible (rated for frequencies up to 1675 MHz or higher).
• Kompatibilita: Not compatible with satellite TV systems (DirecTV, DISH) or AT&T Internet/U-verse coax networks due to frequency overlap.

4.2. Basic Installation Steps

1. Connect the First Adapter (Near Router):
   • Connect one end of the provided coaxial cable to a coaxial wall outlet.
   • Connect the other end of this coaxial cable to the MoCA 2.5 Coax Port on the first HTEM4 adapter.
   • Připojte jeden konec dodaného ethernetového kabelu k 1 Gb/s ethernetový port on the HTEM4 adapter.
   • Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to an available LAN port on your router or modem.
   • Connect the AC power adapter to the Port napájení on the HTEM4 adapter and plug it into a power outlet. The Power LED should turn green.
2. Connect the Second Adapter (Remote Location):
   • In the desired remote location, connect one end of a coaxial cable to a coaxial wall outlet.
   • Connect the other end of this coaxial cable to the MoCA 2.5 Coax Port on the second HTEM4 adapter.
   • Připojte jeden konec ethernetového kabelu k 1 Gb/s ethernetový port on the second HTEM4 adapter.
   • Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the device you wish to connect (e.g., computer, gaming console, Wi-Fi extender).
   • Connect the AC power adapter to the Port napájení on the second HTEM4 adapter and plug it into a power outlet. The Power LED should turn green.
3. Ověřit připojení: After both adapters are powered on, the MoCA LED on both adapters should turn blue (for high-speed mode) or green (for low-speed mode), indicating a successful MoCA network connection. The Link LED on the Ethernet port should also illuminate, and the Activity LED may blink when data is transferred.
