Connecting the Residential Voice Gateway to a Single Computer
This section of the manual explains how to connect your Residential Voice Gateway to the USB or
Ethernet port on your computer and install the necessary software. Please refer to Figure 1 to
help you connect your Digital Cable Modem for the best possible connection.
Attaching the Cable TV Wire to the Residential Voice Gateway
1. Locate the Cable TV wire. You may find it one of three ways:
a. Connected directly to a TV, a Cable TV converter box, or VCR. The line will be connected
to the jack which should be labeled either IN, CABLE IN, CATV, CATV IN, etc.
b. Connected to a wall-mounted cable outlet.
c. Coming out from under a baseboard heater or other location. See Figure 1 for the
wiring example.
Notes: For optimum performance, be sure to
connect your Residential Voice Gateway to the first
point the cable enters your home. The splitter must
be rated for at least 1GHz.
