Installing the PCX2600

To avoid thermal problems, allow at least one inch spacing between the ventilation
holes and any object to either side of the unit. It's best to have no obstructions on top
of the unit. The top of the unit should be at least two inches from any obstruction.

Connect the PCX2600 using the following steps, referring to the figure below.
1. Connect the Cable TV coax to the input connector of a signal splitter.
2. Connect a coaxial cable from one of the output connectors of the splitter to the

input connector of the television set.

3. Connect a coaxial cable from the other output connector of the splitter to the RF

input connector on the cable modem rear panel.

4. Connect the Ethernet and/or USB signal cable(s) from your computer(s) to the

Ethernet and/or USB connector(s) on the cable modem rear panel.

5. Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 12V 1A jack on the cable modem rear panel.

Then plug in the AC adapter to the wall electrical outlet.

6. If using the USB interface, you must install the “USB Driver” with the instructions

described in “Installing the USB Drivers” in this manual.





The power indicator LED on the modem front panel will light, if power is present at
the outlet. The PCX2600 will start operating once power is connected. No additional
operator intervention is required. It will automatically find the data channel, register
and connect to your computer.
