Installing the Cable Modem

To avoid thermal problems, allow at least one inch spacing between the
ventilation holes and any object to either side of the unit. It's best to have no
obstructions on top of the unit. The top of the unit should be at least two inches
from any obstruction.
Connect the cable modem using the following steps, referring to the figure
below.
1. Connect the Cable TV coax to the input connector of a signal splitter.
2. Connect a coaxial cable from one of the output connectors of the splitter to
the input connector of the television set.
3. Connect a coaxial cable from the other output connector of the splitter to
the RF input connector on the cable modem rear panel.
4. Connect the 10Base-T signal cable from your computer to the 10Base-T
connector on the cable modem rear panel.
5. Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 12V 1A jack on the cable modem
rear panel. Then plug in the AC adapter to the wall electrical outlet.
