Connecting the Telephony Modem
WARNING:
Connecting the Telephony Modem to the home's existing wiring
should only be performed by a qualified telephone technician. Physical connec-
tions to the previous telephone provider must be removed and the wiring must
be checked for unexpected voltages. Discontinuation of service alone is not ad-
equate. Failure to do so may result in loss of service and/or permanent damage
to the EMTA.

Connect one end of the coaxial cable to the cable outlet or splitter, and the
other end to the Telephony Modem’s Cable connector (

). Tighten the con-
nections by hand.
2
Insert the plug from the AC adapter or the power cord into the Power con-
nector on the Telephony Modem (

).
3
Insert the power cord into a convenient AC outlet.
The Power light on the front of the Telephony Modem should light up, then
start flashing. See
Troubleshooting
if the Power light does not turn on.

Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the port on the back of the Tele-
phony Modem labeled “Ethernet 10/100,” (

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.
