This is a round cable with a connector on each
end. It is the same kind of wire used to connect
to your television for cable TV. You can buy coax
from any electronics retailer and many discount
stores; make sure it has connectors on both
ends. There are two types of connectors, slip-
on and screw-on; the screw-on connectors are
best for use with your Telephony Modem. The
coax should be long enough to reach from your
Telephony Modem to the nearest cable outlet.
