Before You Begin  
Contacting Your Local Cable Service Provider  
You need to set up a telephone account with your local cable service provider in  
order to use your cable modem for telephone service. When you contact your cable  
service provider, verify the following conditions:  
Does the cable service to your home supports two-way, DOCSIS-compatible cable  
modem access? If your cable service provider does not provide two-way service,  
this modem will not be able to communicate with your cable service providers  
Internet access and telephone services.  
Can you transfer your existing telephone numbers from another telephony service  
provider to your current cable telephony service provider? In some areas, you may  
be able to transfer your existing telephone numbers, or your cable telephony  
service provider will assign a new telephone number for each current or  
additional active telephone line. Discuss these options with your cable telephony  
service provider.  
You must also give your cable service provider the following information:  
The serial number of the modem  
The Media Access Control (MAC) address of the modem  
These numbers appear on a bar code label located on the cable modem. The serial  
number consists of a series of alphanumeric characters preceded by S/N. The MAC  
address consists of a series of alphanumeric characters preceded by MAC. The  
following illustration shows a sample bar code label.

Before You Begin, Continued  
Selecting a Location for Your Modem  
You should work with your cable telephony service provider to choose the best  
location for your cable modem. Consider these recommendations:  
Choose a location close to your computer if you will also use the cable modem for  
high-speed Internet service.  
Choose a location that is near an existing RF coaxial connection to eliminate the  
need for an additional RF coaxial outlet.  
Choose a location for the cable modem that is adjacent to your telephone  
equipment if you are using only one or two pieces of telephone equipment.  
Note: If you are using the cable modem to provide service to several telephones, a  
professional installer can connect the cable modem to your existing home  
telephone wiring. To minimize changes to the home telephone wiring, you may  
want to locate the cable modem near an existing telephone outlet. See Install the  
Cable Modem to Provide Telephone Service, later in this guide for further  
instructions.  
Choose a location that is relatively protected from accidental disturbance or harm,  
such as a closet, basement, or other protected area.  
Choose a location so that there is plenty of room to guide the cables away from the  
modem without straining or crimping them.  
Airflow around the cable modem should not be restricted.  
Read this users guide thoroughly before installing the cable modem.

Telephone Requirements  
Introduction  
This section provides hardware and software requirements for utilizing your cable  
modem for telephone service.  
Number of Telephone Devices  
The RJ-11 telephone-style connectors on the cable modem can each provide  
telephone service to multiple telephones, fax machines, and analog modems. The  
maximum number of telephone devices connected to each RJ-11 port is limited by  
the total Ringing Load of the telephone devices that are connected. Many telephone  
devices are marked with a Ringer Equivalent Number (REN). Each telephone port  
on the cable modem can support up to a 5 REN load. The sum of the REN load on all  
of the telephone devices attached to each port must not exceed 5 REN.  
Telephone Device Types  
You can use telephone devices that are not labeled with a REN number, but the  
maximum number of attached telephone devices cannot be accurately calculated.  
With telephone devices that are not labeled, each device should be connected and  
the ring signal should be tested before adding additional devices. If too many  
telephone devices are attached and the ring signal can no longer be heard, telephone  
devices should be removed until the ring signal works properly.  
Telephones, fax machines, and other telephone devices should use the center 2 pins  
of the RJ-11 connectors to connect to the cable modem telephone ports. Some  
telephones use other pins on the RJ-11 connectors and require adapters in order to  
work.  
Dialing Requirements  
All of your telephones must support Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) touch-tone  
dialing.  
Important: Pulse dialing is not supported.  
Telephone Wiring Requirements  
The cable modem is designed to support interior telephone wiring. The maximum  
distance from the unit to the most distant telephone device must not exceed 1000 feet  
(300 meters). Use 26-gauge twisted-pair, or larger, telephone wiring.  
Important: Connection to an existing or a new permanently installed home  
telephone wiring network must be done by a qualified installer.

Installing the Cable Modem  
Follow these steps for proper cable modem installation.  
1.  
Connect a telephone, fax machine, or analog modem to each of the  
appropriate RJ-11 ports on the cable modem.  
Notes:  
The cable modem provides one line of telephone service on each of the RJ-  
11 connectors.  
Service must be set up and enabled by the cable telephone service  
provider.  
The two center conductors on the RJ-11 connector provide electrical  
connections to directly attached telephone devices or to a permanently  
installed in-home telephone wiring network.  
The use of telephones that require electrical connections to other RJ-11  
pins requires an adapter.  
2.  
3.  
After all telephone connections are complete, insert the AC power adapter  
cord into the DC power connector on the back of the cable modem, and then  
plug the power adapter into an AC power source.  
Connect the active RF coaxial cable to the CABLE IN connector on the back of  
the cable modem.  
Note: Use an optional cable signal splitter to add a TV, a DHCT or set-top  
converter, or a VCR.  
4.  
5.  
The cable modem begins an automatic search to locate and sign on to the  
network that provides the telephone service.  
Note: This process may take up to 5 minutes. The modem will be ready for  
use when the CABLE indicator on the front panel stops blinking and  
illuminates continuously.  
Test your telephone service by lifting the receiver of each attached telephone  
to verify that dial tone can be heard and that you can make and receive  
telephone calls.  
Note: The Line 1 or the Line 2 front panel LED status indicator also  
illuminates depending on which line the telephone is connected to.
