Back Panel Description

The following illustration identifies the back panel components on the DPC2420 and
EPC2420 residential gateways. Descriptions for each component follow the
illustration.
1 POWER—Connects the residential gateway to the AC power adapter that is
provided with your residential gateway
2 ON/OFF SWITCH (European models only)—Allows you to turn off of the
residential gateway without removing the power cord. Turning the residential
gateway off using this switch ensures that all AC power is removed from the
unit and that it is consuming no energy.
3 TELEPHONE 1 and 2—RJ-11 telephone ports connect to home telephone wiring
to conventional telephones or fax machines
Note: The Telephone 2 is optional.
4 ETHERNET—One RJ-45 Ethernet port connects to the Ethernet port on your PC
or your home network
5 REBOOT EMTA—A momentary pressing (1-2 seconds) of this switch reboots
the EMTA. Pressing the switch for more than ten seconds first causes a reset-to-
factory-default of all settings and then reboots the gateway

with your residential gateway.
CAUTION:
The Reboot EMTA button is for maintenance purposes only. Do
not use unless instructed to do so by your cable or telephone
service provider. Doing so may cause you to lose any cable
modem settings you have selected.
