Figure 2. Rear panel
Viewed from top to bottom, the back panel contains the following components:
• Reset button. Pressing the Reset button resets the cable modem. If the Reset button
is pressed for at least seven seconds, the Power LED blinks white and the cable
modem returns to its factory settings.
• Aggregate Ethernet ports. If a device supports Ethernet aggregation like a NAS
or managed network switch, you can use the Ethernet aggregate ports to cable the
device to your cable modem. Use two Ethernet cables to connect these ports to the
aggregated ports on a target network device.
• Coaxial cable port. Connect the cable port to a cable wall outlet.
• DC power connector. Connect the power adapter that came in the product package
to the DC power connector.
