2. LAN1/LAN2: Two fast Ethernet ports to connect Switch/FTTx/xDSL Modem for Internet access.
3. Reset: While CC100 is turned on, press and release this button to reboot CC100. Pressing it for 5 seconds will
restore all settings back to factory default. For example, the IP address will restore to default ‘192.168.1.1’.
4. HCNA: Attach to existing coaxial cable and use it as the networking backbone in one or more MDUs. CC100 is
the HCNA Master device and controls the other Slave HCNA devices (refer to Endpoint or EP, as CC101) on
the same coax network. Refer “Connecting the Cables” for more details.
5. TV/Antenna: Connect to TV Set. Or connect to VHF/UHF antenna or CATV to bypass TV signal to HCNA
port.
LED Indicators
1. Power: Lights up when power on.
2. LAN1: Lights up when LAN1 port is active and flashing when there is any data traffic.
3. LAN2: Lights up when LAN2 port is active and flashing when there is any data traffic.
4. Link/Act: Lights up when HCNA port is active and flashing when there is any data traffic.
5. SyncMode: Lights up when HCNA port is working in HCNA Synchronous MAC mode.
6. Diagnosis: Lights up when CC100 is diagnosing EP.
NOTE: HCNA always adopts the Synchronous MAC protocol layer in coax system in order to coordinate all the
transmissions and eliminate any collisions. The SyncMode LED should always be on as long as power is on.

CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
Connecting the Cables
To establish a new coax networking system through the CC100, reroute the CATV/Antenna signal source over coax
toward the CC100 ‘TV/Antenna’ port and connect the CC100 ‘HCNA’ port to the original coax entrance to the
building. The CC100 works as a Combiner for TV and HCNA signal. In each dwelling unit, use the HCNA EP to
extract the TV signal and Ethernet packets. See Figure 2 for the detailed cabling in one MDU,
Figure 2: Detailed cabling of CC100
3
CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
You can also use other Combiner’s or Mixer-Splitter’s with the CC100 to build the same system. See the following
Figure 3 for different cabling.
Figure 3: Different Cabling of CC100
NOTE: After powering up the CC100, the LED ‘SynMode’ will always be glowing and LED ‘Link/Act’ will light
up if at least one EP is detected on the HCNA network. A dimmed LED ‘Link/Act’ shows if no EP is attached to
the HCNA network.
NOTE: The minimum attenuation between Master and EP is 12dB. The EP is usually connected to the coaxial
cable via a Tap device that provides enough attenuation (contributes more than 20dB). If you intend to connect the
Master and EP directly for test purposes, please add the attenuator that exceeds 12dB to the coaxial cable.
Verification
After you have finished the installation, you should be able to access the CC100 through Ethernet link.

CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
Installing the CC100 with an amplifier
TV Signal Amplifiers may cause interference when used in conjunction with this product. This interference may
occur with particular types of TV Signal Amplifiers when they are connected to the coaxial cable and are placed in
between the Master (CC100) and any of the Slaves (CC101). In order to avoid potential interference, please make
sure that the Master is installed “downstream” of the TV Signal Amplifier such that the Amplifier is not on the cable
that runs in between the master and the slave units.
The below figure shows the recommended setup to install CC100 with an amplifier:

This chapter describes the configuration procedure for your bridge.
Configuration Methods
To access and configure your bridge, choose one of the following methods:
♦ Use Web Browser
♦ Use Telnet Program
♦ Use SNMP Manager or MIB Browser
Use Web Browser
Web browser is the easiest tool to use to configure the bridge. The factory default IP address of CC100 is
‘192.168.1.1’ and the default subnet mask is ‘255.255.255.0’. To access the bridge with default IP, your PC should
be within the same IP network as the bridge, CC100. That is, your PC's IP address should be "192.168.1.xxx". For
instance, you may connect your PC with the bridge directly by Ethernet cable between your PC's Ethernet adapter
and bridge's port LAN1. You can also configure your PC's TCP/IP setting to fixed IP as "192.168.1.xxx", subnet
mask as "255.255.255.0", disable DHCP option. Make your PC and the bridge within the same "192.168.1.xxx"
network. Type in 192.168.1.1 in your browser as seen in the following picture.
The bridge will prompt you for password authorization. The factory default Username is ‘admin’, and default
Password is ‘admin’. Please change it to a more secured password after you login successfully. Here shows the
main configuration menus on the browser,

System Setup (TCP/IP Properties)
CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
The main window contains the left sub-window for the items to be configured, and the right sub-window displays
the contents for the selected item. Moving your mouse on the item in the left window will pop out the corresponding
window. Clicking on the ‘Apply’ button (or ‘OK’ button in some screens) will submit your new settings into the
bridge and will take effect immediately.
System Assets (Information)
Clicking on the bottom-right ‘Info’ icon will pop out the following window,
EP (User) Management
Refer to the following Figure 4 as the example for generic EP management. Each EP is identified by its built-in
HCNA MAC address. The HCNA device residing at CC100 is regarded as the Master (Local) device, and is used
to manage other connected Slave EPs. The HCNA MAC exists only in HCNA (coax) domain, and is unaware for
any EP end-user. System management use system IP addresses and Ethernet MAC addresses to access the CC100.
Each CC100 device should be stamped with both Ethernet MAC and HCNA MAC for identification.

CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
Figure 4: EP Management Architecture
Firmware/Driver Files
CC100 flash ROM is capable of storing the following files:
1. System boot code (OS boot loader)
2. System firmware (OS)
3. Local (Master) HCNA driver for chipset 3110 (resides at CC100)
4. EP (Slave) HCNA drivers for chipset 3010 (Please Note: NetComm do not supply an EP based on chipset 3010)
5. Smart EP (Slave) HCNA drivers for chipset 3110 (resides at Smart EP like CC101).
6. HCNA physical connection diagnosis utility
To upgrade any one of them, you need to follow the 2-stage procedure. First, ‘Upload’ the file onto the CC100
Upload Area, then do the real upgrade by ‘Activate’ it on demand -- the file will move into Working Area for
running. Refer to the following section entitled “Example to Upload then Activate System Firmware and HCNA
Driver” for more details.
EP
Open the ‘EP Management’ window, and click on the ‘Refresh’ button to scan all connected EPs. For example,
8
CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
Each row represents one EP. Here we have one Master (Local) HCNA device (on the top) and 4 extra Slave EP
devices shown in the window. The first two are Smart EPs based on 3110, and the last two EPs that are powered off.
Smart EP
Denotes an EP whose Ethernet properties are configurable. Based on 3110 chipset, with built-in simple management
function, its Ethernet settings can be configured by the CC100. Refer to “Master/EP Ethernet Properties”. In contrast
to the Smart EP, EP based on 3010 chipset will not be denoted as ‘Smart’ and is not configurable in its Ethernet
properties.
For each shown column,
Sel : clicking on the ‘Sel’ button will select all listed on-line EPs at once for EP HCNA driver upgrade, or
just designate the EP one by one for EP HCNA driver upgrade. The top row is the Master device
Link : a light for HCNA device current connection status.
Green: EP is active -- on-line. For Master device, it is always green.
Grey: EP is not active -- off-line, either the user has powered it off or there is a cabling issue. (‘NA’ means
value Not Applicable/Available since setting value in this field is stored inside EP and the EP is
currently unreachable.)
MAC : HCNA MAC address.
F/W : the current queried working (running) HCNA driver version
Model : the current queried working HCNA model name
Note : used to denote EP end-user, for recording username or address or specific message. Mark ‘Local’ for
Master HCNA device.
Config : configure Master’s/Smart EP’s HomePNA and Ethernet properties or EP’s sole HomePNA properties.
Del : Delete the off-line EP’s profile, to save the EP properties profile space of CC100.
Test : run the built-in diagnostic functions. Refer to “Diagnosis” for more details.
Clicking on each device’s ‘HPNA’ button can open the window to configure its HomePNA properties. Click on the
‘Ether’ button to configure its Ethernet properties—only Master and Smart EP support this Ether-configure function.
9
CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
Clicking on the ‘Test’ button can diagnose the noise of HCNA itself and the physical connection quality between
Master and EP.
Properties Profile – Stored the Settings
CC100 will query and store the setting values of individual on-line EP’s into its nonvolatile memory automatically,
including HomePNA properties and Ethernet properties as a profile. It shows the monitored EP status: green light in
the ‘Link’ field means the EP is ‘ON’, grey light indicates it is off. While the EP is off-line and doesn’t need any
service, you may delete its obsolete profile manually to save CC100 storage space. CC100 can keep up to 32 profiles,
and serve up to 1 master plus 31 on-line EPs concurrently.
Master HomePNA Properties (HPNA)
Security Mode
The communication between EP’s is isolated intentionally. EP’s cannot talk to each other. It is the default security
mode and unchangeable.
Privacy Mode
Privacy prevents unauthorized EP’s from accessing the HCNA network controlled by the Master HCNA device.
While ‘Privacy Mode’ is ‘ON’, the Master will serve the EP only if its ‘Privacy Key’ matches with the Master’s.
The ‘Privacy Key’ acts like the EP’s password granted by the Master.
Open the Master privacy configuration window by clicking on its ‘HPNA’ button,
The ‘Privacy Mode’ value for Master (Local device):
Off: It allows all EPs to transmit and receive packets through the CC100. Regardless of the ‘Privacy Key’ values
are set in the Master device.
On: CC100 will communicate with EPs if they own the same ‘Privacy Key’ while the ‘Privacy Mode’ is turned
‘ON’. There should be only one key in one coax networking system. EP’s with unmatched keys will not be
allowed to transmit any packets through the CC100 if ‘Privacy Mode’ is ‘ON’.
The factory default mode is ‘Off’ and key is ‘0x0’ (states in hexadecimal). Once you activate the ‘Privacy Mode’
and set up the ‘Privacy Key’ in the CC100 (the setting values), you need to upgrade the Master and all allowable
EPs’ HCNA driver with the new values (replace the running working values with the new settings) before any
connected EP’s can access the network controlled by the CC100.
Privacy Mode Usage Example
For example, first activate the ‘Privacy Mode’ by apply the ‘ON’ setting and change the ‘Privacy Key’ to ‘0x1234’.
The CC100 will request to upgrade the Master’s HCNA driver, and all allowable EP’s HCNA driver.
10
CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
Clicking the ‘Apply’ button will change the Master row background color to yellow (refer to ‘Profile Status’). Pick
all allowable EP’s for automatic driver upgrade. You may change the selection and proceed to upgrade, in the below
figure only one EP is selected for the performed upgrade.
Click ‘Upgrade’ button,
11
CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
After the upgrade has been completed, press Refresh to update the EP management page.
Here we have one banned EP shown with the red background after upgrade.
Then power on the 2 extra off-line EPs. They will also be banned since their ‘Privacy Mode/Key’ (as default
‘OFF’/‘0x0’) doesn’t match with the Master’s (now key is ‘ON’/‘0x1234’ ).
EP’s are classified by the shown background color, green for allowed EP, red for banned EP.
Privacy Mode/Key Summary
EP’s can’t communicate with each other regardless of the settings of ‘Privacy Mode’ and ‘Privacy Key’. EP’s can
access the coax network controlled by the CC100 only if EP has the right ‘Privacy Mode’ and ‘Privacy Key’.
Please refer to the following diagram for more details,

Upgrading the EP’s HCNA driver is the only way to change the EP’s ‘Privacy Mode’ and ‘Privacy Key’—by
applying the setting values of the Master HCNA device to selected EP’s.
Profile Status for Master and EP
Each listed device status can also be classified by the shown background color:
Green: For Master, the ‘Privacy Mode/Key’ working values in device is consistent with the profile stored setting
values in the CC100. For EP, it can access the network.
Yellow: For Master, it has inconsistent ‘Privacy Mode/Key’ settings. You may upgrade the Master’s driver to
synchronize its working values. (to replace the running working values with the setting ones).
Red: For banned EP’s, either ‘Privacy Mode/Key’ in the EP is not matched or the ‘Host Limit’ value in the EP
is 0. The CC100 will refuse to serve this EP.
EP HomePNA Properties (HPNA)
EP’s (either Smart or not) conform to the following HomePNA settings stored in the CC100 Master,
Note
Footnote to the EP (user).
Host Limit
Specify the maximum allowable host (as PC) numbers attached on this EP:
0: Service is disabled, no host is allowed
1~11: The factory default value is 11 for unrestricted.

CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
Master/Smart EP Ethernet Properties (Ether)
The Ethernet properties of the Master device and Smart EP device are configurable. For those EPs equipped with the
fixed Ethernet properties are remarked as un-configurable EPs – usually based on 3010 chipset.
Port Setup
To configure built-in Ethernet switch port properties, including speed, flow control, and maximum In/Out rate
(bandwidth control) of ports LAN1/LAN2/HCNA.
Service and Speed/Duplex
Change ‘Service’ to enable or disable the port. This setting opens or closes the related Ethernet switch port in EP’s.
The default setting in the field ‘Speed/Duplex’ is ‘Auto’ which states for auto-negotiation.
Bandwidth Control
Consider port HCNA as the network backbone and refer to the following diagram to set up bandwidth control
parameters in the EP’s Ethernet switch (Regarded as Hardware bandwidth control, works for both upstream and
downstream). The maximum allowed rate should be the setting value multiplied by 64Kbps. If maximum rate
exceeds 100Mbps (as the value 1563), there will be no bandwidth control at all.

QoS Setup
A total of 4 prioritized queues are provided for Ethernet packets, denoted as Queue0 (lowest priority), Queue1,
Queue2 and Queue3 (highest priority). You may assign the different packet dropping ratio and service weights for
different queues. Refer to Chapter “ADVANCED FEATURES” for more CC100
For example, according to the following setting diagram we classify TCP/UDP packet with port ‘1234’ or ‘80’
(decimal) as the highest priority packet goes to Queue3, port ‘23’ goes to Queue2 and port ‘161’ goes to Queue1.
Queue3 will not discard any packet (Drop Ratio 0%), and packets in Queue3 are transmitted 4 times faster than
packets in Queue0 according to their ‘Service Weight’. Packets in Queue0/Queue1/Queue2 will be discarded
according to their ‘Drop Ratio’ in case of any congestion.
QoS mechanism details.
15
CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
IGMP v2 Snooping Setup
Supports IGMP V2/V1 snooping only. Shut it if IGMP V3 is adopted in the network.
Tag VLAN Setup
Enable the 802.1Q Tag VLAN function and set up the values in the field ‘VID’ and ‘Priority’. VID range is 1~4095
and Priority is 0~7.
Regard HCNA port as the network trunk. Once Tag VLAN is enabled, by default the LAN1 port and the HCNA port
are set to the same VLAN; also the LAN2 port and the HCNA port are within the same VLAN. The LAN1 port and
the LAN2 port are not within the same VLAN if assigned with different VID.
Take the following VLAN setting diagrams for example.
First example, enable Tag VLAN in both Master and EP ‘VLAN’ settings,
16
CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
The following diagram denotes the path for tagged packets according to the above settings,
Second example, enable Tag VLAN in EP only, and keep Master Tag VLAN disabled as default, as seen in the
following packet path diagram.

Reset to Default
Works for EP only, to reset all Ethernet settings/configurations of EP to factory default, including ‘Port Setup’,
‘QoS Setup’, ‘IGMP v2 Snooping Setup’, and ‘Tag VLAN Setup’.
Delete the Obsolete EP Profile
For the off-line EP’s only, the light in the Link field is grey; clicking on the ‘Del’ button will delete the EP profile.
Diagnosis
Click on the ‘Test’ button to run the built-in diagnostic tools.
Device Noise in Master and EP
‘Noise Test’ measures each individual device HCNA interface noise level (noise floor). For example, use a Master
alone with 75Ω terminator, here shows the Master noise frequency spectrum diagram after test,
18
CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
Connect only one EP to Master, with 30dB attenuator add-on. Here’s the ‘Noise Test’ result of the connected EP,
Physical Connection between Master and EP
Connect only one EP to Master, with 30dB attenuator add-on. Here’s the result by clicking on ‘Tx Diagnose’ button
to perform a Cert test between CC100 and the connected EP,
19
CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
This diagnosis runs the downstream test from CC100 toward the EP.
Also the result of ‘Rx Diagnose’ of the same gears,
This diagnosis runs the upstream test from EP to CC100.
The shown factors ‘SNR’, ‘Lost Pkts’, ‘PE’ and ‘RX Power’ are obtained during communication diagnosis
between the tested EP device and Master device.
SNR: Normally between 38dB~42dB.
Lost Pkts: Denominator is the total number of transmitted packets in one test run. Numerator is the number of lost
packets in one test run.
PE: 112Mbps/128Mbps/144Mbps (best connection carrier speed, in bits per second) for normal connection.
CC100 will adopt lower carrier speed automatically for connection path with high attenuation (lower
SNR).
Rx Power: measured signal power
Administration
The settings include the Administrator account, the allowable Host with specified source IP, and the protocols like
HTTP/TELNET/ICMP/SNMP in CC100 management. Set up the criteria for management packets toward the
CC100. Irrelevant for data packets passed through the CC100 toward the EP.
20
CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
Administrator
For each account, 3 levels of privilege are provided: Superuser, Read, and ReadWrite. The unchangeable username
‘admin’ always has the ‘Superuser’ rights.
To add a user account, you need to have the ‘Superuser’ privilege,
Allowed Source
Factory default filter set for the ‘IP address’ is ‘0.0.0.0’ and the ‘Subnet Mask’ is ‘0.0.0.0’ in ‘Allowed Source’
setting. If the incoming packet fulfills the following criterion, the CC100 will accept the management packet, else
discard it.
21
CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
( Incoming Source IP Address & Subnet Mask ) = ( IP Address & Subnet Mask )
For the factory default setting, it will accept all incoming packets.
For example, the following filter set permits all Hosts with IP address ‘192.168.1.xxx’ to access and configure the
CC100,
For each programmed filter set, you can further specify if the protocols Telnet/Http/SNMP/Ping are enabled or not.
Be careful not to block your current IP from accessing the CC100 remotely; else you have to press the Reset Button
locally and restart from factory default settings.
22
Telnet/Http/SNMP Setup
CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
23
CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide
Specify that if the built-in Telnet server, Web server, and SNMP agent is enabled or not and assign the port number
for the service.
System Log
By designating the Syslog server IP on the CC100, the CC100 will emit Unix-like Syslog events toward each server.
Please refer to RFC-3164 for Syslog ‘Severity’, used to denote the log level – digit ‘0’ to ‘7’ for different severity
levels:
0: EMERGENCY – log only severe events
1: ALERT
2: CRITICAL
3: ERROR
4: WARNING
5: NOTICE
6: INFO
7: DEBUG – log everything
For example, the CC100 will emit only ‘EMERGENCY’ events to Server with the IP address ‘192.168.1.111’
according to the following setting.
24
CC100 Master Bridge User’s Guide
System Time
In order to provide correct timestamp for Syslog event, the CC100 supports SNTP protocol and you may assign the
suitable SNTP servers to the CC100.
For example,
To access your listed SNTP server by its domain name instead of IP address, the ‘DNS Server’ and ‘Default
Gateway’ in the ‘System Setup’ window needs to be set up correctly in order for the CC100 to access the SNTP
server by its domain name.
Static MAC
It may be necessary to bind and secure the server/gateway MAC addresses to port LAN1/LAN2 of the CC100 for
security. Static MAC is used to prevent MAC-spoofing-attack in the Ethernet network. For example,
25
CC100Master Bridge User’s Guide

Upload Firmware
Upload ‘Bootcode’ / ‘System firmware’ / ‘Master driver (3110)’ / ‘EP driver (3010 or 3110)’ / ‘Diagnosis
utility’ onto the CC100 ‘Upload Area’. Not functional yet, wait to ‘Activate Firmware’ or to ‘Upgrade’ driver.
Refer to the following “Example to Upload then Activate System Firmware and HCNA Driver” for more details.
Activate Firmware
To do the real upgrade for ‘Bootcode’ or ‘System Firmware’, make the previous uploaded image functional. Refer
the following “Example to Upload then Activate System Firmware and HCNA Driver” for more details.
Backup/Restore Configuration
Use to backup current configuration into a file with filename extension ‘.shc’. Or to restore the CC100 configuration
form the previous saved file.
Example to Upload then Activate System Firmware and HCNA Driver
It is a 2-stage file upgrade procedure, first to upload the selected file onto the CC100 flash ROM ‘Upload Area’,
then to ‘Activate’ it. A coax network system with one CC100 and two connected Smart EPs.

Use SNMP
The SNMP Agent resides in CC100 and will handle requests from a remote SNMP Manager. The CC100 SNMP
agent supports standard SNMP community-based operations (SNMP V1/V2c) as ‘SET’, ‘GET’ and ‘TRAP’.
You need to specify the correct Read-Only Community Name into bridge before any SNMP ‘GET’ operation can
be performed. Also set up the Read/Write Community Name for SNMP ‘SET’ operation. ‘SET’ operation can
modify the setting within the CC100. While ‘Get’ is read-only operation used to report the requested SNMP data to
SNMP manager.
You may need the accompanying proprietary MIB file for some popular SNMP/MIB manager software to manage
the bridge system. The CC100 bridge system may also be integrated into your original SNMP management system
by this MIB file.
Each SNMP manager will assign the name of the community it belongs to in its ‘GET’, ‘SET’ and ‘TRAP’
operations. The community name could be unique to allow set of SNMP managers to access one SNMP agent, any
operation with mismatched community name will be rejected by agent. For security consideration, you should either
change the factory default community name or disable SNMP function in CC100.
The default ‘GET’ community name of CC100 is ‘public’, and default ‘SET’ community name is ‘private’.
For the following example, the two ‘TRAP Server’ with IP address ‘192.168.1.100’ and ‘192.168.1.101’ will
capture all traps emitted from the CC100 SNMP agent,

QoS
Quality of Service is enforced by assigning each incoming packet with a predefined priority value. Packets with
higher priority should be processed as soon as possible (fast in, fast out). In shortage of buffers, some low priority
packets should be discarded to smooth the high priority traffic flow. Higher priority traffic will have higher data rate
and lower possibility of being discarded.
The numbering priority value ranges from 0 to 7, and 7 represents the highest priority level. The CC100 supports
priority schemes such as 802.1p, IP TOS and TCP/UDP protocol.
Priority in Upstream and Downstream
There are 4 priority queues for packets. Packets with priority value 0 or 1 go to the same queue, denoted as Queue0.
Queue1 has priority value 2 and 3, Queue2 has priority value 4 and 5, and Queue3 has priority value 6 and 7. In
Total 4 levels of service are provided. Queue3 needs to have higher “Service Weight’, i.e. packets reside in
Queue3 will be sent out faster. Packets in Queue0 should have larger ‘Drop Ratio’ in congestion situation since it
is classified as less important.
Refer to the following table for the detail mechanism to discard packets early according to their priority to prevent
resources blocked by the low priority. For example, if ‘Drop R atio’ of Queue0 is set to 75%, then CC100 will
discard 50% of incoming packets toward Queue0 if Queue0 is one fourth full (Queue Utilization 25%). And will
discard 75% of incoming packets toward Queue0 if Queue0 is half full (Queue Utilization 50%).
Drop Ratio
Queue
Utilization
25% 0% 0% 25% 50%
50% 0% 25% 50% 75%
802.1p
Tagged packet has the 3-bit (value 0~7) 802.1p field for priority mapping. The default priority mapping scheme is
usually suitable and should work for most applications--for example, to map 802.1p value 7 to priority 7, to map
value 0 to priority 0, and so on. It will take effect in both downstream and upstream.
IP TOS
The bit7 to bit5 of TOS byte in IP packets is treated as TOS precedence value (0~7). By default, the CC100 uses the
precedence value to map the priority queue. Please refer RFC-1349.
TCP/UDP Port Number
Different TCP or UDP port numbers usually states for different protocol. You may raise the priority for important
applications with specified TCP or UDP port numbers. In the CC100, you can assign higher priority for total 8
different TCP/UDP protocols.
