Adapter Configuration
Corinex AV200 CableLAN Adapter
Note: It is strongly advised to turn on the notching function.
Power Control is an automatic transmission power control which prevents different
networks from overpowering each other.
Power Control is turned on only when other networks are detected in the channel.
If the transmission strength reaches the isolation point between networks, the
transmission power is limited from overpowering the other network. If the isolation
point is not reached, the adapters continue transmitting as normal.
3.4.5 Multicast Configuration
In order to optimize multicast traffic (video streams, etc.) between AV200 CableLAN
adapters, you can specify which adapters should receive the video. Other adapters
will then not be able to receive the multicast communication, and therefore the
bandwidth will be used only for transmission to the intended recipients, making your
broadcast, and your entire network, more efficient.
This form shows the list of multicast bindings, where the IP addresses of adapters
are assigned to a unicast (video source) MAC address. This list can be saved to
memory on the CableLAN adapter (Save in NVRAM). Bindings can be removed by
checking their “Remove” checkboxes and clicking “OK”. Add a new binding to the
list by entering the multicast IP address in decimal format (ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd), and
the unicast (source) MAC address, in hexadecimal format (XXXXXXXXXXXX), in
the appropriate fields and clicking “OK.”
The new IGMP Aware Multicast Syndication feature can be enabled via this form.
This feature is only available on private networks (those with a valid Network
Identifier) and End Points (EP).
