HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE INSTALLATION

NOTE: Before installing your modem, write its serial number in the space provided on the first page of this manual. (You’ll find the serial number above the bar code on the white sticker on the back of the modem and on the outside of the modem’s box.) If you ever call our customer support department, a representative will ask you for the serial number. This will help to identify your modem.

Before you begin installing the cable modem hardware, you need to determine how you want to incorporate the modem into your work environment. There are three installation options:

1.Wall-mount installation (this page)

2.Desktop installation (page 13)

3.OfficeConnect stacking installation (page 13)

Wall-Mount Installation

Your cable modem is capable of being wall- mounted, if you choose to do so. The bottom panel of the cable modem has two raised brackets with slots as shown in the following illustration.

NOTE: Before wall-mounting the cable modem, follow the instructions in the section “Connecting the Cable Modem to Your Computer” (pages 15- 18). Then return to this point to continue the process.
