Can I split the signal going out of the adapter and into a gigabit ethernet switch?

If you mean can you send the ethernet/network output into a switch - yes, definitely, I do this at home for a home office. The other output (the built-in split) is the cable and you'd send that to a TV or set top box, etc - that's not network, but RF.

For Ethernet, there are 2 connections on the Actiontec device that need to be used. One of them is the RJ45 connector that can be connected to/from the gigabit switch. The other is the coax connector that needs to be connected to another Actiontec device via its coax connector and then from that Actiontec device to a Gigabit switch or network device (PC, Lap Top etc) via the RJ45 connector. The network Coax connection is labeled with a network icon. the RF (TV) connection is labeled with a TV Icon.

Yes you can connect the network port on this device to a 10/100/1000 switch.But, from my FIOS experience, where I use this, depending any heavy FIOS video traffic in combination with the exact nature of your coax type, coax connectors and how crimped and the bandwith of any coax cabling splitters you may have in your coax setup (signal to noise ratios greatly differ between coax splitters, as there are differing quality coax splitters) you may not always get full gigabit speed on that connection.

Yes. I did this downstairs with a second adapter to switch Ethernet to multiple devices. The first one upstairs gets Ethernet directly from my router.

Yes you should be able to do that. Just imagine your electrical wiring as a very long ethernet cable once you have hooked up the powerline adapters.

You would have to use a simple splitter. Only one of the two outlets is controlable.

are you inquiring about Ethernet Cable Splitter, I cannot answer this question then, as I have not tried this out.

Short answer, yes. But you won't be able to split the channels (L/R) on your interface. As you are going into a mono input this shouldn't be an issue.

No, it's just a crossover adapter. Turns a regular ethernet cable into a crossover cable with this plugged into one end.

Yes. This splitter allows one Cat5 cable to be used as if it were two. Keep in mind, when you split the cable, you will only be able to connect devices at 100Mbps. You will not get 1Gbps anymore.

you need one of this adapters on each side, and it works transforming Ethernet into coax and coax back to Ethernet, so yes if you have a adapter on each side, one on the router and the other on the switch you will be able to get DHCP on the devices.

No you can run the PCs directly to the ethernet switch and plug the access point into an open port configure it and you're all set.

No, it's a splitter. You should get the switch. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B1V071E

No,it will not split the Ethernet it will able you, to use one at a time TV or Blu Ray Player. It will switch from TV to Blu Ray Player.You will not be able to use TV and Player at the same time.

Let me see if I understand, you want to split before the amp so the cable modem is separate? You could do that but this unit has a dedicated cable modem port which is basically doing the same thing.

A splitter will not work with a router, what you need is what is called a switched hub.

it should, the splitter will only read 1 connection at a time. use an ab switch.

No, unless you have (1) a router that can generate two free LAN lines that can be fed to the other end of the Ethernet jack, and (2) cable wiring that is CAT5 or newer (true for all new homes/installations). A cheaper solution might be to use a switch such as TRENDnet TE100-S5 5-Port Ethernet Switch (5 x 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX RJ-45 Ports) that costs only $11.99 and will give you 4 ports instead of two.

Yes it's a switch not splitter so only 1 source will go through at a time and it shouldn't matter if both are on.

Yes; however, it depends on the orientation of the plug. In my case, the ground is on top so I had to invert the adapter with the Ethernet cable plugging in from the top. I had to get creative but it is doable.
