Abstract
A cable set-top box system with integrated cable tuners and MoCA may implemented on a single integrated circuit, supporting communication over a shared coaxial cable line. The system may include a memory interface shared by DOCSIS and video/audio subsystems. The system may further include an embedded processor in the MoCA subsystem, enabling autonomous operation of the MoCA subsystem and secure flash memory that is not directly accessible by the DOCSIS subsystem.
