Overview: The Channel Master CM-6004 Internet-to-TV 4-Port
Coax Switch is an easy-to-install solution providing up to 4 internet
connections to any one of the coax cable outlets in your home, when paired with
CM6000 Internet-to-TV Adapter Kit (6596000,
sold separately) or CM6001 Internet-to-TV Coax Adapter (6596001,
sold separately). 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 the television
or device. With most homes prewired with coax to nearly all rooms, Channel
Master's Internet-to-TV technology is the perfect solution. The Internet-to-TV
CM-6004 has been designed 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 & easy to
install.

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).

Coax input (Cable In) with a female F-type connector, and RF Coax output (TV out)

SAT/Cable box. The Channel Master CM-6004 will work with RG6, RG59, or RG11 coax
