Re: Would this conflict with an active cable signal?

No conflict with traditional TV according to the press release:

The device operates in the 800-1500MHz range, so there is no interference with other products such as cable TV transmissions.

Cool.
I've already got the Powerline HDX101.
MOCA is good in that it should have low signal loss/interference (vs. powerline)
Powerline is good in that you have any outlet in the house (many!).
I've got a lot better range/stability on ethernet over powerline than I did on WiFi (esp for SSH/X11 sessions), and typically obtain ~50Mbps throughput. Downside is that they should have used gigabit ports vs. 100Mbps ports.

800-900 Mhz is used by many cable companies, up to 1Ghz is used by some, and the higher frequencies are often used by satellite.

Further, if you don't have satellite, most of your splitters are probably good only up to 900Mhz.

Terrific, except cable is going to 1ghz. I know TWC is heavily deploying new 1ghz gear in many areas, and there are reports of similar activity from Cox.

Somehow, I don't think this is considered BPL.
Usage is limited to about 1 house. HAMs would have to be pointing a yagi at my house to pick anything up.. and I suspect they'd get interference from other devices (like my PC) first.

there are a few cable systems around that run up to 1000Mhz...

Oh yeah... traditional systems... I wonder how verizon will put up with junk rg-59 from the 1980's or nicks in the cable that wreak havoc on high frequencies...
