Back Panel Description

The following illustration identifies the back panel components on the DPC3828 and
EPC3828 residential gateways. Descriptions for each component follow the
illustration.
Important: Do not connect your PC to both the Ethernet and USB ports at the same
time. Your residential gateway will not function properly if both the Ethernet and
USB ports are connected to your PC at the same time.
1 ON/OFF SWITCH (Provided only on products that carry the CE mark)—
Allows you to turn off the residential gateway without removing the power cord.
Turning the residential gateway off using this switch ensures that the unit is
consuming no energy.
2 POWER—Connects the residential gateway to the AC power adapter that is
provided with your residential gateway.
Important: Use only the power supply provided with your residential gateway.
3 USB (Optional for some models)—Connects to selected devices. For models that
support USB, the default is one USB port.
4 ETHERNET—Four RJ-45 Ethernet ports connect to the Ethernet port on your PC
or your home network.
5 CABLE—F-connector connects to an active cable signal from your service
provider.
6 RESET—A momentary pressing (1-2 seconds) of this switch restarts (power
cycles) the device. Pressing and holding the switch for more than ten seconds
first causes a reset-to-factory-default of all settings and then restarts (power
cycles) the device.
