Home networking

Who doesn’t know the problem? You want to use the internet connection at full power throughout the house, have interference-free WLAN reception, enjoy streaming services in high resolution and network your devices via LAN, but you don’t have the necessary cabling.

With our G.hn modems for home networking (InHome Firmware), we offer an inexpensive and quickly implementable alternative to laying new network cables: they are connected to each other via 2-wire telephone or coaxial cables – this creates a fast wired network. Up to 16 modems are possible in the network – sufficient for houses of any size. Installation is plug-n-play – connect the cable and get started.

For the best possible performance, all modems communicate peer-to-peer and share the available bandwidth of approx. 1500 Mbps. This means that even a gigabit-fast fibre-optic connection can be distributed throughout the entire house without loss.

Advantage for WLAN repeaters: they are connected to the router via LAN and can illuminate the house with full power, mesh functionality is maintained. Power supply with PoE+ is also possible.

For networking via telephone cable, we have several compatible modems with different numbers of LAN ports and additional functions, all devices can be combined in the network as desired:

G4201TM (1xGE), G4202T (2xGE + analogue phone), G4202TCP (2xGE with PoE+).

All types of telephone cabling are supported: Point-to-point, “star”, “in series” and also combinations of these. Data transmission is generally 2-wire (SISO).

To create a common network, the telephone cables must be connected to each other. Cable clamps are sufficient for this.

For all questions regarding installation, please refer to our practical tips.
