What You Will Need For Installation
In addition to this manual, your package should include the fol-
lowing items:
•
Zoom PCI Cable Modem
•
CD-ROM disc containing installation software and modem
drivers.
You will need the following items to complete your installation:
•
Cable modem service provided by your cable company. The
cable modem service must be 2-way DOCSIS compatible. For
more information on cable modem service see the next section
of this manual.
•
The CD-ROM for the operating system running on your com-
puter.
•
A cable outlet.
•
The proper length of coaxial cable to reach between your
computer and the cable outlet.
Note:
Make sure that your cable company provides DOCSIS
(Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications) com-
patible cable service. The DOCSIS standard, created by
CableLabs®, is employed by leading cable service provid-
ers to ensure system compatibility and ease of use. This
standard means that the modem is compatible with many
cable systems. This modem is not designed to work on
EuroDOCSIS or DVD/DAVIC cable systems.
