Connecting the Cable Modem

Ethernet Connection to One Computer

Make the connections to the modem in the following sequence (Fig. 22):

1.Connect one end of the coaxial cable to the cable connection in the wall, and the other end to the connector on the modem labeled “CABLE.”

2.Insert the plug from the AC power supply into the power AC jack on the cable modem and the two-prong plug into the AC outlet.

Note: Use only the power supply that accompanied this unit. Using other adapters may damage the unit.

3.Connect one end of the Ethernet cable (straight-wired, see below) to the Ethernet port on the back of your computer, and the other end to the ETHERNET port on the cable modem’s back panel.

Make sure that the Ethernet cable is straight-wired (not “null” or crossover-wired). However, you will need a crossover-type cable if you are connecting the modem to a hub, or a hub within a port switch that provides the same function.

Thomson CABLE MODEM specifications

The Technicolor - Thomson CABLE MODEM is a groundbreaking device designed to enhance the home networking experience, providing high-speed internet connectivity for various devices. One of the key features of this modem is its advanced DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification) technology. This ensures compatibility with most cable internet service providers and supports high-speed data transmission rates, making it suitable for households with multiple internet users and devices simultaneously.

Its robust design supports DOCSIS 3.0, allowing for download speeds that can reach up to 1 Gbps. This makes it ideal for online gaming, streaming HD or 4K content, and video conferencing without interruptions. The modem also features integrated dual-band Wi-Fi, which means it can transmit both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signals. This dual-band capability ensures a stable connection, as devices that require higher speeds can connect to the 5 GHz band, while other devices can still operate on the 2.4 GHz band, reducing congestion and improving overall performance.

Another notable characteristic of the Technicolor CABLE MODEM is its user-friendly interface, facilitating easy installation and management. The modem comes with an intuitive setup process, allowing users to get online quickly. Additionally, it includes a web-based management portal, where users can monitor network performance, manage connected devices, and set parental controls for added security.

The device is also equipped with advanced security features to protect the home network from unauthorized access and cyber threats. WPA3 encryption ensures that data transmitted over the network remains secure, safeguarding personal information and maintaining privacy.

Furthermore, the Technicolor CABLE MODEM is designed with energy efficiency in mind. It uses low power during operation while providing maximum output, helping users reduce energy bills without compromising on performance. With its combination of speed, connectivity options, and security, this modem stands out as a reliable choice for modern households, supporting the increasing demand for high-speed internet access in today's digital landscape. Overall, the Technicolor - Thomson CABLE MODEM is a versatile and dependable option for consumers seeking to enhance their home internet experience.
