Connecting Your Network Devices To The Mediaaccess Gateway - Technicolor MediaAccess TG650s Setup And User Manual

2 MANUAL INSTALLATION
2.3 Connecting Your Network Devices to the MediaAccess
Gateway
Requirements
Both your network device (for example, a computer, a gaming console,...) and MediaAccess Gateway must have a free

Ethernet port.
Your network device must be configured to obtain an IP address automatically. This is the default setting.

Connection speed
Ethernet port 1 is a Gigabit Ethernet port and has a maximum speed of 1 Gbps (Gigabit per second). The other Ethernet
ports have a maximum speed of 100Mbps (Megabit per second).
Ethernet cable
In your package, you will find a cable with yellow connectors. This is the Ethernet cable.
When using other cables than the ones provided in your box, make sure to use the correct type of cable:
Category 5 (CAT5) cables are used for 10/100Mb Ethernet.

Category 5 Enhanced (CAT5E) cables help to prevent cross-talk and are used for 10/100Mb/1000Mb(Gigabit Ethernet)

Category 6 (CAT6) cables are similar to Cat 5E cables but have larger gauge wires and are used for 10/100/1000Mb

(Gigabit Ethernet). This cable is better than CAT5E for Gigabit Ethernet.
Procedure
Proceed as follows:
1 Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to one of the yellow Ethernet ports of your MediaAccess Gateway:
2 Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your network device.
The MediaAccess Gateway does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE). All network devices that are connected
to the MediaAccess Gateway must be powered by their own power source.
3 Your network device is now connected to your network. No additional configuration is needed unless specified by your
service provider.
