Satellite TV and
Multi-Gigabit Ethernet.
KB-M3-02E — the only MoCA 2.5 adapter with two 2.5GbE ports built for Extended E-Band (400–900MHz) satellite TV homes.
Most MoCA adapters clash with satellite TV. The KB-M3-02E doesn't — it runs in the Extended E-Band, coexisting cleanly with DIRECTV, DISH, and other satellite systems, while giving you two full-speed 2.5 Gbps Ethernet ports from a single coax outlet.
Two ports. Zero interference with your satellite signal.
MoCA's standard D-Band overlaps with satellite TV frequencies, causing pixelation and dropouts. The KB-M3-02E avoids that entirely by operating in the Extended E-Band (400–900MHz) — a frequency range that leaves your satellite signal untouched while still delivering two independent 2.5 Gbps Ethernet connections from a single coax outlet.
Why People Choose the KB-M3-02E
Exclusive dual 2.5GbE ports
The world's only E-Band MoCA adapter with two 2.5GbE ports — connect a router and a second device at full speed from one outlet.
Built for satellite TV homes
Operates at 400–900MHz, fully compatible with DIRECTV, DISH, and other satellite systems — no interference, no pixelation.
Real, tested throughput
iperf-verified up to 2.5 Gbps per port. Built on the MaxLinear MxL3710 + GPY211 PHY.
Better Wi-Fi, wired in
Turns your coax outlets into a stable backbone for mesh Wi-Fi and access points — faster speeds in, better Wi-Fi out.
Truly plug & play
No new cabling, no complicated configuration. Connect coax and Ethernet, and your network is upgraded instantly.
Backward compatible
Works with MoCA 1.1, 2.0, and 2.5 E-Band devices for easy integration into existing setups.
Built for satellite TV, not against it
The KB-M3-02E is purpose-built for satellite TV environments — make sure it matches your setup before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I wire European multimedia coax outlets with MoCA 2.5?
Don't use MoCA's TV port — outlet filters block the satellite IF range (950–2150 MHz) before it reaches the MoCA 2.5 adapter.
On the LNB side, use a 2-way SAT splitter (5–2150 MHz, DC power pass to LNB) — one input from the coax outlet (STB), the other from the MoCA device.
My satellite TV picture shows artifacts or pixelation when using the MoCA adapter with Extended E-Band. What should I do?
Will the E-Band MoCA 2.5 adapter work with DIRECTV or DISH satellite TV?

Setup & Tutorial Videos
► Check firmware and link rate for stable performance
If issues arise, check the adapter's firmware version and link rate. The link rate reflects the stability of the MoCA connection — a healthy rate is typically around 3500 Mbps.
► Switch from static IP to DHCP for automated management
Prefer the adapter to pull its management IP via DHCP? This guide walks through enabling DHCP on the device for easier, more flexible network management.
► Enable MoCA traffic security across your network
The Security feature protects data on your MoCA network from unauthorized devices. Every MoCA device must support and enable it — MoCA 2.5 devices generally do, but older ones may not. Verify your device types before enabling to avoid connection failures.
User Manual & Firmware
Other Languages
Pick the right E-Band firmware for your setup
Both versions are built on MaxLinear SDK v1.18.13. The Extended E-Band firmware is already pre-installed on your unit — you only need the Standard E-Band version if you experience interference on your satellite signal.
Default — ships on every unit
This is the firmware your KB-M3-02E ships with. It covers the wider 400–900 MHz frequency range and is compatible with satellite TV out of the box — no action needed. Keep this installed unless you notice pixelation or interference on your satellite picture.
Download FirmwareOnly if you have interference
Restricts MoCA operation to 400–700 MHz to eliminate any overlap with satellite TV frequencies. Install this only if the pre-installed Extended firmware causes pixelation or interference on DIRECTV, DISH, or other satellite setups. It's the safer fallback for sensitive installations.
Download FirmwareWhich one do I need? You don't need to download anything unless you're troubleshooting. Your unit already ships with the Extended E-Band firmware installed. Only switch to Standard E-Band if you notice pixelation or interference on your satellite TV picture.
