Overview: The Channel Master CM-6000 Internet-to-TV
Coax Adapter Kit is an easy-to-install solution providing an internet connection
to any of the coax cable outlets in your home. Many new TV's, SAT/Cable boxes,
Blu-ray players, and game consoles now have internet capabilities and need to be
connected to the Internet. After getting these products home you may find it
difficult to connect them to the internet, because you may not have an Ethernet
jack by your television or component. With most homes prewired with coax to
nearly all rooms, Channel Master's Internet-to-TV Coax adapter Kit (CM-6000) is
the perfect solution.
Note: The Channel Master CM-6000 Internet-to-TV Coax Adapter Kit
consists of two Channel Master CM-6001 Internet-to-TV Coax Adapters.
Additional CM-6001 Internet-to-TV Coax Adapters (6596001,
sold separately) can be purchased to expand your Internet connection to
additional Internet-ready devices in other rooms of your home (up to 16).
MoCA 1.1 Compliance: The Channel Master CM-6000 Internet-to-TV Coax
Kit is MoCA 1.1 compliant. The Multimedia
over Coax Alliance (MoCA) is the universal standard for home
entertainment networking. MoCA is the only home entertainment networking
standard in use by all three pay TV segments (Cable, Satellite, & IPTV). The
current MoCA specification can support multiple streams of HD or SD video, deliver up
to 175 Mbps net throughputs and offer an unparalleled user experience via
parameterized quality of service (PQoS).
Internet-to-TV Connections: Simply connect one adapter (CM-6001) to your modem and coax network,
then connect the second Adapter (CM-6001) to your coax network in another room
where internet connection is desired. The Internet-to-TV adapters have been
designed to allow the home network or internet signal to ride along the same
coax as your cable television or terrestrial antenna signals with no
interference. This is the most reliable solution without installing new wires
and best of all its affordable and easy to install.
- RF Coax Connectors: Each Channel Master Internet-to-TV
coax adapter is equipped with a RF
Coax input (Cable In) with a female F-type connector, and RF Coax output (TV out)
with a female F-type connector. The RF Coax input connects to the RF coaxial
cable outlet from your wall. The RF Coax output then connects to your TV or
SAT/Cable box. The Channel Master CM-6000 will work with RG6, RG59, or RG11 coax
cables (sold separately).
- Ethernet Port: Each Internet-to-TV coax adapter is
equipped with a single Ethernet (RJ-45) port. One Internet-to-TV coax
adapter is connected to your home network's modem/router. The other
Internet-to-TV coax adapter is connected to your Internet enabled TV, DVR,
Blu-ray player, or game console. The CM-6000 supports Cat5e or higher Ethernet cable (two 4' Ethernet cables
are supplied).
Note: The Channel Master CM-6000 Internet-to-TV Coax Adapter Kit will support cable and/or DSL high-speed
internet services. Dish Network and DirecTV Satellite services will require
a coax-splitter from the wall and a separate coax cable run.
Status LED Lights: The LED lights located on the front-panel
of each Internet-to-TV coax adapter indicate
the status of the Ethernet network (Network), coaxial network (c.Link), and
power connection (Power).
AC Power Adapter: The Channel Master CM-6000 Internet-to-TV
Adapter Kit operates off of standard household AC current, using the supplied AC
power adapters.
Mounting Options: Each Internet-to-TV coax adapter features four integrated
rubber feet to place the device on a flat table-top surface. There are also two
keyhole slots that allow you to wall-mount the unit.
