Is HomePNA networking compatible with other technologies such as wireless, DSL, cable modem, and satellite?
A key objective of HomePNA is to coexist with all available and emerging home Internet access solutions. HomePNA 3.1 can coexist with analog telephone service (POT, ISDN, ADSL). It also coexists with VDSL, broadcast television channels, and satellite services over coax. HomePNA 3.1 does not, however, coexist with DOCSIS. When installing a cable modem in the same home as HomePNA 3.1, the cable modem should be isolated on a separate coax “drop”. DOCSIS is not present in many parts of the world where HomePNA is being deployed over coax.
