Installing and Connecting Your
Telephony Gateway
Before you start, make sure that:
You have contacted your cable company and verified that they provide data
and telephone service using standard DOCSIS technology.
You have all the
items you need
.
Cable, phone, and power outlets are available near the computer. If a cable
outlet is not conveniently located, your cable company can install a new one.
If you have ordered service, your cable company should configure the Telephony
Gateway automatically. You need only follow the instructions in this section to in-
stall and connect the Telephony Gateway.
CAUTION
Risk of equipment damage
Only qualified installation technicians should connect the Telephony
Gateway to house wiring. Incumbent telephone service must be physi-
cally disconnected at the outside interface box before making any
connections.

Selecting an Installation Location
There are a number of factors to consider when choosing a location to install your
Telephony Gateway:
Is an AC outlet available nearby? For best results, the outlet should not be
switched and should be close enough to the Telephony Gateway that exten-
sion cords are not required.
Is a cable jack available? For best performance, keep the number of split-
ters between the jack and cable drop to a minimum. Each splitter attenuates
(re duces) the signal available to the Telephony Gateway. A large number of
split ters can slow down the Internet connection and even affect your tele-
phone service.
Can you easily run cables between the Telephony Gateway’s location and
the phones?
If you are connecting devices to the Ethernet ports, can you easily run ca-
bles between the Telephony Gateway’s location and those devices?
If you want to install the Telephony Gateway on a desktop, is there enough
space on either side to keep the vents clear? Blocking the vents may cause
overheating.
How close are your wireless devices? The Telephony Gateway wireless con-
nection range is typically 100–200 feet (30m–65m). A number of factors
can affect connection range, as described below.
Desktop mounting instructions
Position the Telephony Gateway so that:
air flows freely around it
the back faces the nearest wall
it will not fall to the floor if bumped or moved
the side of the unit are not blocked.
