Installing the Modem

WARNING: This product is for indoor use only. Do not route the Ethernet cable(s) outside of
the building. Exposure of the cables to lightning could create a safety hazard and damage the
product.

Connecting the Cable Modem

1. Connect one end of the coax cable to the cable outlet or splitter, and the other end to the
Cable Modem's Cable connector (3). Tighten the connections by hand, then tighten an
additional 1/8 turn with a wrench.
Note: For best performance, use high-quality coax cable and minimize or eliminate
splitters between the cable jack and the Cable Modem.
2. Insert the plug from the power cord into the Power connector on the back of the Cable
Modem (4) and insert the power cord into a convenient AC outlet.
The Power light on the front of the Cable Modem lights up, then flashes once (refer to the
LED tables shown in Using the Cable Modem). See Troubleshooting if the Power light does
not turn on.
