Mounting the Telephony Modem
You can either mount the Telephony Modem on a wall or place it on a desktop.
For wall-mount applications, you can mount the Telephony Modem with the indi-
cators facing upward (vertical) or to the side (horizontal).
Tools and Materials
For wall-mounted installations, make sure you have the following tools and mate-
rials before proceeding:
•
for mounting on drywall: Two 1/4” (6mm) drywall anchors and a drill with
1/4” (6mm) bit (not included)
•
for mounting on plywood or studs: two #6 x 1.5” (38.1 mm) self tapping
screws (not included)
•
screwdriver (flat-blade or Phillips, depending on what kind of screws you
use)
•
wall-mount template (included)
•
transparent tape: for temporarily securing the mounting template to the wall
(not included)
Wall-mounting instructions
1
Position the mounting template on the surface where you intend to mount
the Telephony Modem and secure in place with transparent tape.
2
Drill holes through the template in the specified locations for the mounting
screws. After drilling holes, remove the template from the surface.
3
If using drywall anchors, set them into the wall. Then, drive the screws into
the wall leaving a gap of about 1/8” (3 mm) between the screw head and
the wall. If not using anchors, just drive the screws.
4
Orient the Telephony Modem with the indicator lights facing up or right, as
desired. Slip both mounting slots (in the back of the Telephony Modem) over
the screws, then slide the case down until the narrow end of the keyhole slot
contacts the screw shaft.
5

Connecting the Telephony Modem

Connecting the Telephony Modem
WARNING
Risk of injury or equipment damage
Connecting the Telephony Modem to the home’s existing telephone
wiring should only be performed by a professional installer. Physical con-
nections to the previous telephone provider must be removed and the
wiring must be checked; there must not be any voltage. Cancellation of
telephone service is not adequate. Failure to do so may result in loss of
service and/or permanent damage to the Telephony Modem.
1
Thread the antenna onto the Antenna connector on the back of the Telepho-
ny Modem (
C
). Tighten only by hand. Turn the antenna so that it points
straight up, if possible.
2
Connect one end of the coax cable to the cable outlet or splitter, and the
other end to the Telephony Modem’s Cable connector (
G
). Tighten the con-
nections by hand, then tighten an additional 1/8 turn with a wrench.
Note
: For best performance, use high-quality coax cable and minimize or
eliminate splitters between the cable jack and the Telephony Modem.
3
Insert the plug from the power cord into the Power connector on the back
of the Telephony Modem (
H
) and insert the power cord into a convenient AC
outlet.
The Power light on the front of the Telephony Modem lights up, then flashes
once (refer to the LED table on page 44). See
Troubleshooting
if the Power
light does not turn on.

4
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to any Ethernet port on the back of
the Telephony Modem, (
D
) and the other end to the Ethernet port on a com-
puter, hub, or broadband router.
Note
: If you are connecting to a computer, use the Ethernet cable included
in the Telephony Modem package.
5
Connect one end of the telephone cable to the telephone port on the back
of the Telephony Modem (
A
or
B
). Connect the other end to the telephone.
