WARNING
Risk of injury or equipment damage
Connecting the Telephony Modem to the home's existing telephone
wiring should only be performed by a professional installer. Physical con-
nections to the previous telephone provider must be removed and the
wiring must be checked; there must not be any voltage. Cancellation of
telephone service is not adequate. Failure to do so may result in loss of
service and/or permanent damage to the Telephony Modem.
1 Connect one end of the coax cable to the cable outlet or splitter, and the
other end to the Telephony Modem's Cable connector (E). Tighten the con-
nections by hand, then tighten an additional 1/8 turn with a wrench.
Note: For best performance, use high-quality RG-6 type coax cable and mini-
mize or eliminate splitters between the cable jack and the Telephony Modem.
2 Insert the plug from the power cord into the Power connector on the Tele-
phony Modem (F) and insert the power cord into a convenient AC outlet.
Model TM902S only: Make sure that the rear panel power switch (G) is set
to the ON position.
The Power light on the front of the Telephony Modem lights up, then flashes
once (refer to the Indicator Lights table for your model). See
ing if the Power light does not turn on.
3 Connect one end of the yellow Ethernet cable to the yellow port on the back
of the Telephony Modem labeled "Ethernet 10/100/1000," (C) and the other
end to the Ethernet port on a computer, hub, or broadband router.
Note: If you are connecting to a computer, use the Ethernet cable included
in the Telephony Modem package.
