INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL 

CWFE(1,2)COAX[M]

100MBPS ETHERNET-OVER-COAX
SINGLE / DUAL CHANNEL

The ComNet

 CWFE1COAX[M] and CNFE2COAX support high-speed Ethernet 

transmission over standard 75 

Ω

 coaxial cable circuits, at data rates of 

100Mbps, and transmission distances of up to 305 meters (1000 feet). 

The CWFE1COAXM is a small sized unit and the CWFE2COAX contains two 

independent channels in a single standard-sized enclosure (ComFit). These 

modems are the perfect solution for upgrading an existing coaxial cable plant 

for use with Ethernet, when compared to the significant costs and nuisance of 

installing new network cabling.

User-configurable master/remote selection is included for unparalleled 

versatility. See 

Figure 10

 on 

Page 5

 for Switch settings.

LED indicators are provided for rapidly ascertaining the operating status of the 

device. See 

Figure 9

 on 

Page 5

 for LED explanations.

These units are designed for shelf, card cage or stand-alone mounting, making 

them ideal for those installations were space is limited. The CWFE1COAXM 

and CWFE2COAX may also be DIN-rail mounted by the addition of the ComNet 

model DINBKT2 Adaptor Plate Kit. See
