2.4 Installing the CableLAN Adapter
To connect the Corinex CableLAN Adapter to your computer, follow the steps listed
below:
1. Plug the supplied AC cord into the Corinex CableLAN Adapter and after that,
into an AC outlet.
2. Plug the coax cable into the Corinex CableLAN Adapter.
3. Unplug the coaxial cable connecting the TV and the TV outlet. Plug the
T-splitter into the TV outlet.
4. Plug the TV coaxial cable into the T-splitter. Plug the CableLAN coaxial cable
into the T-splitter.
5. Plug the Ethernet cable into the Corinex CableLAN Adapter and the Ethernet
slot or card on your computer.
The Corinex CableLAN Adapter is equipped with an automatic switch enabling an
Ethernet slot or card on the computer to be connected to the Adapter via a standard
cable or to connect a cable modem or DSL modem via a "cross cable" to the Adapter.
If there is an existing Docsis (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications) system
already installed, special precautions, as described further have to be taken.
It is possible to cut off the Docsis functions and insert the CableLAN at the incoming
node. You can still use the Docsis Modem’s access capacity for Internet communications.
This requires the use of a passive diplexer filter. See the installation example in the
following pictures.
