Mounting the Wideband Cable Modem

You can either mount the Wideband Cable Modem on a wall or place it on a desk-

top. For wall-mount applications, you can mount the Wideband Cable Modem with

the indicators facing upward (vertical) or to the side (horizontal).

Tools and Materials

For wall-mounted installations, make sure you have the following tools and mate-

rials before proceeding:

• screwdriver (ﬂat-blade or Phillips, depending on what kind of screws you

use)

• wall-mount template (included)

• transparent tape (for temporarily securing the mounting template to the

wall)

• for mounting on drywall: Two 1/4” (6mm) drywall anchors and a drill with

1/4” (6mm) bit (not included)

• for mounting on plywood or studs: two #6 x 1.5” (38.1 mm) self tapping

screws; the head diameter should be approximately 6mm (0.25inches)

Location

Always position the Wideband Cable Modem:

• within 1.3m (4 feet) of an AC outlet. The power cord must reach the outlet

without stretching and without adding extension cords.

• with the indicator lights facing up or to the right as shown

• near a cable outlet (to avoid long cable runs).

• where the ventilation holes on the unit will not be blocked

Note: For best performance, use high-quality RG-6 type coax cable and mini-

mize or eliminate splitters between the cable jack and the Wideband

Cable Modem.
