Wodaplug EOC products (EOC Master + EOC slave units) offer you the possibility to bring internet triple play services to every coaxial socket in the building, are suitable for coexistence with TV and satellite reception, it is possible to use the same cable and add a data signal to the input of the coaxial distribution to the existing TV/SAT signal. The installation is very simple, the only obstacle to the throughput of the data signal, which uses the band 7,5-65MHz (or 7,5-86MHZ version AV2) are active elements – amplifiers that are typically working in the band above 40MHz. Those amplifiers have to be bypassed by the bridge using Wodaplug diplexers. Wodaplug diplexers are used to separate the data and TV signals and then reunite them back. Real data throughput is 300-350Mbps (resp 500Mbps version AV2) and depends on line attenuation, until 20-40dB attenuation the speed is still close to the maximum, around 50dB attenuation the speed is still 100Mbps and the limit of functionality is attenuation above 65-70dB. Another limit is the length of the cable, the maximum direct distance between units is 1500m (cable RG59), in the rugged wiring above 700-800m the time synchronization of the used Homeplug technology AV can be thrown off. To achieve a longer distances it is therefore necessary to use an additional transmitting master unit for the next part of the line. Examples of real installations and typical connecting to coaxial wiring can be found in the section “how to install”.
Wodaplug EOC line behaves like a smart L2 switch in a transparent bridge, independent of protocols, operating systems, does not need any additional software. The central Master unit communicates by the wiring with Slave units, which are all configured from the web management of the Master unit. Slave units cannot communicate with each other. For slave units you can set automatic or manual authorization according to MAC, template for setting individual ethernet ports slave units and for all 4 ethernet ports Slave units you can configure different VLANs, QOS or Shaper. Typical deployment is for example 2 ports set as STB with VLAN for IPTV or VOIP and two ports with VLAN or without for Internet. Multicast support is also a matter of course, IGMP, storm and loop protection. There is also a Slave unit with WiFi, which can also function as a router with NAT or as a bridge.
Slave Units Management: (configuration template support!)
- Setting the connection permissions according to their MAC address
- Statistical information to each unit, attenuation, SNR, RX/TX
- Broadcast protection statistics, adjustable for each slave individually
- Setting VLAN 802.1Q parameters for each LAN port slave device
- Upload/download band settings for each LAN port slave device, there’s also an option to set the aggregate transfer limit for the whole slave device
- Priority 802.1p for each LAN port slave device
- Remote upgrade slave units, remotly rebooting units
- Possibility to use templates to set slave units
Master Units Management:
- Web management, CLI – telnet+ssh, SNMP monitoring and surveillance, transmission statistics
- Setting VLAN 802.1Q for management interface master
- Settings protection against broadcast storm
- Independent LAN port for local management
- Upgrade from ftp, remote reboot, import/export configuration files
- Logging, syslog to remote server
In practice, we recommend installing a maximum of 25-30 (or 40-50 for the AV2 version) slave units to one master unit in one coaxial distribution system; when planning, consider that the bandwidth of the coaxial wiring is common to the slave units and it is good not to exceed this number to maintain quality services for the users. From practical deployments it is verified that, for example, an EOC line in an apartment building can handle 10 SD or 5 HD different IPTV channels + guaranteed internet services at the same time, with multiple IPTV channels running at the same time the image can start to pixelize. The unit coexists with the TV signal and does not affect its reception (DVB-T/C/S).

CZECH LANGUAGE DESCRIPTION / POPIS V ČESKÉM JAZYCE
Wodaplug EOC produkty (EOC Master + EOC Slave jednotky) vám nabízí možnost jak přivést internetové triple play služby do každé zásuvky koaxiálního rozvodu v budově, jsou vhodné pro koexistenci s TV i satelitním příjmem, je možné použít stejný kabelový rozvod a přisloučit datový signál na vstup koaxiálního rozvodu k stávajícímu TV/SAT signálu. Instalace je velice jednoduchá, jedinou překážkou průchodnosti datového signálu. který používá pásmo 7,5-65MHz (resp 7,5-86MHZ verze AV2), jsou aktivní prvky – zesilovače, které typicky fungují v pásmu nad 40MHz a zesilovače je tedy nutno obejít tzv. bridgem. K tomu se používají Wodaplug diplexery, které oddělí datový a TV signál a pak je zase sloučí. Reálná datová propustnost je mezi 300-350Mbps (resp 500Mbps verze AV2) a závisí na útlumu vedení, do 20-40dB útlumu je rychlost stále blízko maximu, okolo 50dB útlumu je rychlost stále reálných 100Mbps a limitem funkčnosti je útlum nad 65-70dB. Dalším limitem je délka vedení, maximální přímá vzdálenost mezi jednotkami je 1500m (kabel RG59), v členitých rozvodech nad 700-800m už může docházet k rozhození časové synchronizace použité technologie Homeplug AV. K dosažení delší vzdálenosti je tedy potřeba použít další vysílací Master jednotku pro další část vedení. Příklady reálných instalací a typických zapojení do koaxiálních rozvodů naleznete v sekci jak instalovat.
Wodaplug EOC linka se chová jako chytrý L2 switch v transparentním bridge, nezávislý na protokolech, operačních systémech, nepotřebuje žádný další software. Centrální Master jednotka komunikuje po vedení se Slave jednotkami, které se všechny konfigurují z web managementu Master jednotky. Slave jednotky nemohou komunikovat mezi sebou, tzv MDU topologie a to hvězda nebo strom. Pro slave jednotky si můžete nastavit automatickou či manuální autorizaci dle MAC, šablonu pro nastavení jednotlivých ethernet portů Slave jednotky a pro všechny 4 ethernetové porty Slave jednotek můžete konfigurovat různé VLAN, QOS či Shaper. Typické nasazení je např. 2 porty nastavit jako STB s VLAN pro IPTV či VOIP a dva porty s VLAN či bez pro internet. Samozřejmostí je i podpora multicast, IGMP a storm a loop protection. K dispozici je i Slave jednotka s WiFi, které umí fungovat i jako router s NAT a nebo jako bridge.
Řízení Slave jednotek : (podpora konfiguračních šablon!)
- Nastavení oprávnění připojení dle jejich MAC adresy
- Statistické informace ke každé jednotce, útlum, SNR, RX/TX statistika
- Ochrana proti broadcastům, nastavitelná pro každý Slave individuálně
- Nastavení VLAN 802.1Q parametrů pro každý LAN port Slave zařízení
- Nastavení přenosového pásma upload/download pro každý LAN port Slave zařízení, možnost nastavení úhrnného přenosového limitu na celé Slave zařízení
- Priority 802.1p pro každý LAN port Slave zařízení
- Vzdálený upgrade Slave jednotek, vzdálený reboot jednotek
- Možnost používání templatů pro nastavení Slave jednotek
Parametry nastavitelné pro master jednotku:
- Web management, CLI – telnet + ssh, SNMP monitoring a dohled, přenosové statistiky
- Nastavení VLAN 802.1Q pro management rozhraní masteru
- Nastavení ochrany proti broadcast storm
- Nezávislý LAN port pro lokální management
- Upgrade z ftp, vzdálený reboot, import/export konfiguračních souborů
- Logování, syslog na vzdálený server
V praxi doporučujeme instalovat maximálně 25-30 (resp 40-50 pro verzi AV2) Slave jednotek k jedné Master jednotce v jednom koaxiálním rozvodu, při plánování počítejte s tím, že šířka pásma koaxiálního vedení je pro Slave jednotky společná a pro zachování kvalitních služeb pro koncové uživatele je dobré tento počet nepřekračovat. Z praktických nasazení je ověřeno že například EOC linka v bytovém domě zvládne 10 SD resp. 5 HD různých IPTV kanálů + garantované internetové služby najednou, při více spuštěných IPTV kanálech najednou už může obraz začít kostičkovat. Jednotka koexistuje s TV signálem a nemá vliv na jeho příjem (DVB-T/C/S).
