Conﬁguration Usage Troubleshooting Glossary

• n areas of high surge events or poor grounding situations and areas prone

to lightning strikes, additional surge protection may be required (i.e.

PF11VNT3 from American Power Conver sion) on the AC, RF, and Ethernet

lines.

• When the Data Gateway is connected to a local computer through Ethernet

cables, the computer must be proper ly grounded to the building/residence

AC ground network. All plug-in cards within the computer must be properly

installed and grounded to the computer frame per the manufacturer’s spec-

iﬁcations.

• Ensure proper ventillation. Position the Data Gateway so that air ﬂows freely

around it and the ventillation holes on the unit are not blocked.

• Do not mount the Data Gateway on surfaces that are sensitive to heat

and/or which may be damaged by the heat generated by the unit, its power

supply, or other accessories.

FCC Part 15

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the requirements for a

Class B digital device under Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission

(FCC) rules. These requirements are intended to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,

uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in ac-

cordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communi-

cations. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a

particular installation. f this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,

the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the fol-

lowing measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• ncrease the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which

the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Changes or modiﬁcations to this equipment not expressly approved by the party re-

sponsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

What’s in the Box?

Make sure you have the following items before proceeding. Call your cable company

for assistance if anything is missing.

• Data Gateway

• Power Cord

• Wall-Mounting Template and nstructions

• Quick nstallation Guide

• Ethernet Cable (CAT5e)

• End User License Agreement

Items You Need

f you are installing the Data Gateway yourself, make sure you have the follow ing

items on hand before continuing:

•Data Gateway package: see What’s in the Box? for a list of items in the

package.

•Coaxial cable (coax): as shown in the image to the left, this is a round

cable with a connector on each end. t is the same kind of wire used to con-

nect to your television for cable TV. You can buy coax from any electronics

retailer and many discount stores; make sure it has connectors on both

ends. There are two types of connectors, slip-on and screw-on; the screw-

on connectors are best for use with your Data Gateway. The coax should be

long enough to reach from your Data Gateway to the nearest cable outlet.

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

imize or eliminate splitters between the cable jack and the Data Gateway.

•Splitter (optional): provides an extra cable connection by splitting a sin-

gle outlet into two. You may need a splitter if you have a TV already con-

nected to the cable outlet that you want to use. You can buy a splitter from

any electronics retailer and most discount stores; you may also need a short

piece of coax cable (with connectors); use it to connect the splitter to the

cable outlet and then connect the Data Gateway and TV to the splitter.

Note: A splitter effectively cuts the signal in half and sends each half to its

two outputs. Using several splitters in a line may deteriorate the quality of

your television and/or internet connection.

•Wall-mount hardware (optional): if you want to wall-mount your Data

Gateway, you need to obtain two drywall anchors or wood screws. See the

Wall-Mount Template and nstructions for more details.

•Information packet: your cable company should furnish you with a packet

containing information about your service and how to set it up. Read this in-

formation carefully and contact your cable company if you have any ques-

tions.

Getting Service

Before trying to use your new Data Gateway, contact your local cable company to

establish an nternet account. When you call, have the fol lowing information ready:

• the Data Gateway serial number and cable MAC addresses of the unit

(printed on a sticker on the bottom of the Data Gateway)

• the model number of the Data Gateway

f the Data Gateway was provided by your cable company, they already have the

required information.

n addition, you should ask your cable company the following questions:

• Do you have any special system requirements or ﬁles that need to down-

load after am connected?

• When can start using my Data Gateway?

• Do need a user D or password to access the nternet or my e-mail?
