Your Zoom PCI Internal Cable Modem is designed to connect
your personal computer to the Internet through the same cable
that you use for television reception.
Cable Modem Overview
A cable modem provides several advantages over traditional analog
modems:
•
Transmission speeds are much faster. Because of the increased
speed of a cable modem, you can enjoy faster, more produc-
tive Internet sessions.
•
A cable modem frees up your phone line, so you don't miss
phone calls or have to obtain a dedicated telephone line for
Internet access.
•
The cable connection can be "always-on" so Internet access is
fast and easy.
Cable Modem Service
Your local television cable company provides cable modem service,
also known as cable data service or broadband Internet. When a
cable modem is used, the cable that supplies television service to
your home or office is connected to the cable modem in the same
way that it is connected to your television set or cable box. You
can then get the benefit of high-speed access to the Internet
through the local cable company's service. The cable connection to
the Internet does not interfere with your regular television signal,
because the cable modem service is provided on different channels
than cable television programming.
