1.2 Installing for Cable with an Integrated Cable Modem & Router
(without MoCA Capability)
Figure 10 – Cable/Telco Installation with Integrated Cable Modem & Router
Follow these steps to set up the SBM1000 MoCA adapters in your home network if you are
receiving your Internet service through a gateway, also referred to as an integrated cable modem
and router:
1. Identify the rooms that you want to add to your home network and make sure there is a
coaxial cable connection in each room.
2. Locate the cable wall outlet (or RF splitter) and electrical wall outlet in the first room (see
Room 1 in Figure 10).
Note
: Although the SBM1100 and SBM1400 adapters are interchangeable, the SBM1400 is
typically located where more than one Ethernet connection is required (see Room 1 in Figure
10).
3. Check if the coaxial cable is connected to an RF splitter. If it is not, then disconnect the cable
from your Smart TV or set-top box and connect it to the IN connector on one of the RF
splitters (included).
4. Connect one of the coaxial cables (included) to the OUT connector on the RF splitter and
your Smart TV or set-top box (see Figure 11).
Note
: You can use either OUT connector on the RF splitter (included) for this installation.
5. Connect a second coaxial cable (included) to the other OUT connector on the RF splitter and
the Coax In connector on the SBM1400 (see Figure 11).
6. Connect one of the Ethernet cables (included) to one of the Ethernet ports on the SBM1400
and the Ethernet/Network port on your Smart TV or other Smart device (see Figure 11).
Repeat for each additional SBM1400 Ethernet connection with other networked audio-visual
devices, if applicable.
