MoCA with Satellite TV and OTA

[snbmoss]

Anyone aware of a solution where Directv (974 to 1790 MHz) and OTA (50 to 806 MHz) could be triplexed on a single coax with MoCA. The Directv flavor of MoCA (DECA) walks on the OTA freq's and I have no option of running a seperate coax dedicated to OTA. It looks like the current MoCA adapters walk on the Directv freq's.

Thanks for any help,

Why do you need a separate OTA tuner? I just use the OTA tuner built into my DTV HD DVR.

Nope. You're going to be forced to run a separate coax. That's why MoCA 1.1 supports >500 MHz instead of the >850 MHz for the DBS/DVB providers.

You can try and see if MoCA will work itself to find a something that doesn't interfere with DBS and OTA... But there's no guarantees.

The D-Link MoCA I have says it has a web page admin to manually select the frequencies that you want to use. I haven't needed to do so.

I assume that Netgear's MoCA has the same.
