  • In August 2007, CableLabs and MoCA formally established a cooperative relationship to share published and draft specifications as well as proposed documentation to ensure seamless integration of each other's technology within the home. CableLabs and MoCA have always operated separately but in parallel. Both organizations will continue to develop specifications independently, but acknowledge the benefits of cooperation.


  • In May, The Multimedia over Coax Alliance (MoCA) named Charles Cerino as its new president. Cerino is currently vice president of new media development at Comcast Corporation, where he evaluates new technologies and how best to incorporate their value into the network.
