Enabling Service with Mo. CA 11 Feb 2010 www. mocalliance. org

The Convergence of Applications, Devices and Services Explosion of content Storage Analog to digital conversion Applications Networking Mass market deployment of DVR and HDTV Service provider Triple-play bundling (IPTV/Telco. TV, Cable MSOs)

Video Networking Requirements • High Performance with wide outlet coverage • > 100 Mbps net throughput at >97% of outlets • Inherent low BER/PER • Cannot rely on retransmissions • Low Latency independent of network load • No time to retransmit video frames • Coexist with Cable, DBS, Terrestrial, Telco • Spectrum support for future performance increases (>1 Gbps)

Installation Objectives • Easy installation in the home • Low sensitivity to home coax topology • Be able to seamlessly support any type of Coax topography • Any network node can be connected to any outlet in the house • Minimize need to replace splitters or add new wires

The Mo. CA Connected Home

The Organization • • • Established in January 2004 by some of the most respected service providers and OEMs in the world. Promote the distribution of multiple streams of HD content throughout the home using already existent coax. Only alliance with appeal to all three pay TV segments (telco, cable, DBS). Full deployment (Verizon’s Fi. OS TV) with more than 2. 7 million subs. DIRECTV, Comcast, TWC, Cox and Bright House Networks publicly committed to using Mo. CA in their networks. More than a dozen other operators in trials. More than 60 certified products (STBs, ONTs, BHRs, ECBs) Recently established liaison agreement with Home. Plug. Incorporated into DLNA’s Interoperability Guidelines Member of OPASTCO (U. S. tier 2 telcos and cableco) and CEDIA (installers and integrators).

Mo. CA 1. 0/1. 1 • • No new wires or interference with other technologies and mediums. Complementary to wireless—extends wireless backbone in home. Operates with other services on the same coax Field tests in 250 homes validated net throughputs of more than 100 Mb/s in 97 percent of outlets. • Only Alliance to conduct and publish field tests. • Mo. CA 1. 1 capable of 175 Mbps net throughputs, PQo. S bandwidth management and 16 node network extension

Mo. CA Technology Features • • MAC throughput including 175 Mb/s (Mo. CA v 1. 1) Flexible spectrum usage – 50 MHz coexisting with Cable or Satellite Support for 16 nodes (Mo. CA v 1. 1) PHY is Bitloaded OFDM – optimizes PHY rate for any channel • Pre-equalization allows simple Reed Solomon FEC • Fully coordinated and synchronized network • Transmission slots are assigned by a Network Controller (NC) per Request. Grant mechanism • NC is automatically selected • Preferred NC can be selected by higher layer applications (Mo. CA v 1. 1) • Probing mechanism allows performance optimization per connection • Quality of Service (Qo. S) • Prioritized Qo. S – differentiated service for video, voice and gaming • Parameterized Qo. S – bandwidth reservation per flows (Mo. CA v 1. 1) • Management interface with detailed characteristics

Wired Technologies shakeout • Gigabit Ethernet • • Mo. CA • • • If you have CAT 5 infrastructure, Gigabit Ethernet is the best Coax is the cleanest medium Multiple Channels Support of many service providers Integrated solutions Power. Line • • • Low data rates Single Channel, Remediation is difficult Fragmented into many incompatible organizations / specifications • • • Home. Plug (US) (Intellon) • Home. Plug 1. 0 / Turbo • Home. Plug AV CE-Powerline Communication Alliance = CEPCA (Japan) (Panasonic) Open PLC European Research Alliance = OPERA (Europe) (DS 2) IEEE P 1901 ITU-T G. hn / Home. Grid Forum Home. PNA • • Single Channel Reduced to single small supplier Requires Coax to be viable, but not designed/tuned for coax Conflicts with DOCSIS/Euro. DOCSIS

Mo. CA 2. 0 in Development • Two performance modes: • 400 and 800 Mb/s actual throughputs • 700 and 1. 4 Gb/s PHY rates • Two low power modes: • Sleep and standby • Address power consumption in entire network • Backward compatible with previous versions without degradation in performance. • Protects investment in current equipment. No firmware or swap out necessary. • Mo. CA 1. 0/1. 1 meet needs of operators now. Mo. CA 2. 0 meets needs of operators tomorrow.

Verizon: Video will be our core product • From Advanced Television, September 21, 2009: • Verizon CEO Ivan Seidenberg says video, not voice, will be the core product over his expanding fibre network. He said he no longer worried about looking for the "inflection point" in the loss of access lines. "I don't care about that any more, I am going to focus on driving Fi. OS penetration and taking costs out, " he said, adding that he felt "liberated". He expected the Fi. OS network would stretch to 70 per cent of Verizon’s fixed-line customer base. He said that with TV, the PC and the Internet converging, the carrier’s future would be in selling video services, such as interactive TV, bundled with wireless voice. "So what I need to do is get ourselves focused around the following idea, that video is going to be the core product in the fixed line business. We are going to bundle it with wireless, we are going to integrate software over all the screens. “ • http: //www. advanced-television. com/2009/sep 21_sep 25. htm#t 6
