b) In coax networking, the existing TV/SAT antenna cable network is also used
for dLAN transmission. Coax cables provide outstanding shielding due to
their design. In comparison to PowerLine, they also enable a higher transfer
rate, because with them, modifications to the transmission capacity are not
required and neither can interference signals arise, the effects of which
would otherwise have to be taken into account (for example, with corre-
sponding settings in the modulation table).
You can bridge distances of up to 600 metres with dLAN on a coax line.
Networking via coax/TV is supported by dLAN 200 AVpro 2 and by
dLAN 500 AVpro UNI, for example.
c) When operating the dLAN via the telephone wiring and via two-wire lines
(
twisted pairs
), distances of up to 600 metres can be bridged with good line
quality. The quality of the shielding with this medium is usually below that
of coaxial lines, but the signal quality is higher than that of PowerLine due
to the twisted line wires.
Networking via telephone wiring is supported by dLAN 200 AVpro 2
via F-RJ45 adapter and by dLAN 500 AVpro UNI, for example.
The dLAN devices in a dLAN can commonly use only one transmission medium,
which has to be identical for all dLAN devices of the respective dLAN.
If you want to use multiple transmission media alongside one another at one
location of use, you have to set up an individual dLAN on every individual trans-
mission medium.
You can connect these various dLANs via bridges with one another by connect-
ing two dLAN devices, which each use different transmission mediums via an
Ethernet cable.
