This chapter describes the proper steps for connecting your cable modem. Please be
sure to follow the steps in the sequence outlined below. Failure to do so could result
in improper operation or failure of your cable modem.
Step 1:
Connect a cable by feeding the F-connector on the back of the cable
modem. Ensure the center conductor of the 75 ohm coaxial cable is inserted directly
into the center of the F-connector. Secure the coaxial cable by carefully threading the
outer shell of the coaxial cable connector onto the F-connector in a clockwise
direction until tight. Be careful not to over-tighten the connector or you may damage
either the connector or the cable modem.
Step2:
Connect the cable modem to an IEEE 802.3 10BaseT / 802.3u 100Base-TX
Network using a RJ-45 male-terminated Ethernet cable or an USB cable to the PC.
This cable modem equips with two Ethernet ports, you can connect two PCs to the
cable modem at the same time if necessary.
Step 3:
Connect the telephone sets to TEL1 and TEL2. Use RJ-11 telephone line to
connect TEL1/TEL2 port on the cable modem and telephone socket on telephone.
Step 4:
Connect the AC Adapter to the cable modem by inserting the barrel-shaped
connector into the mating power connector on the back of the cable modem.
Exercise carefully to ensure the connectors are properly aligned prior to insertion and
ensure the two connectors engage completely. The cable modem is shipped with an
AC adapter. Remember to use only power adapter that came with the cable modem.
