What You Will Also Need
What You Will Also Need What You Will Also Need
In addition to the items packaged with your modem, you will need
the following items to complete your installation.
•
Macintosh with an available Ethernet port and running Mac
OS 7.6.1 or above.
Note: If you have an older Mac, it may have an AAUI-15
Ethernet port rather than a 10BT Ethernet port. If so, you
will need to purchase an AAUI-15-to-10BT adapter.
•
Cable modem service provided by your cable company. The
service must be DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface
Specification) compatible.
•
A power outlet.
•
A cable TV outlet that has been configured by your cable
company for high-speed broadband access.
•
The proper length of 75-ohm coaxial cable to reach between
your cable modem and the cable outlet
Note: Because there is great variety in the way cable is installed,
we do not provide a coaxial cable to connect to your cable
system. If your cable service company does not provide
one, you should purchase a coaxial cable with an RG-59 or
RG-61U rating (75-ohm) and industry-standard F
connectors on both ends. For best performance, do not
use "push-on" F connectors; use only "screw-on" F
connectors.
