1. A network over coaxial cable, the network comprising:
- a plurality of networked nodes;
wherein a transmitter of at least one of the networked nodes is configured to transmit a message comprising a concatenated burst, said concatenated burst comprising;
a preamble;
a first payload; and
a second payload wherein the first payload and the second payload are separated by a cyclic prefix of a first symbol of the second payload.

Abstract
Systems and methods for concatenating messages in MoCA devices that are connected via a coax network are provided. One embodiment of a system according to the invention includes a home network having a plurality of nodes. The network is implemented over coaxial cable. The network includes a plurality of networked nodes. A transmitter of at least one of the networked nodes is configurable to transmit a concatenated burst. The concatenated burst includes a preamble, a first payload frame and a second payload frame. The first payload frame and the second payload frame are separated by a cyclic prefix of a first symbol of the second payload frame.
