Understanding Device Connections - Rear Panel

Installing the Modem

  • Connect the coaxial cable (not supplied) to the Cable connector on the rear panel of the modem and connect the other end to the cable wall outlet. Do not bend or over tighten the cables, as this may strain the connector and cause damage. To connect a modem and a television to the same wall outlet, you must use a cable line splitter (not included).
  • Connect the Ethernet cable (supplied) to an Ethernet port on the back panel of the modem and connect the other end to the Ethernet port of a PC or router (wireless access point). Use a Category 5e or Category 6 Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors to ensure Gigabit Ethernet speeds (if the computer supports it).
  • Connect the power adapter (supplied) to the Power port on the modem. Connect the other end to a power outlet.
