System Requirements
Before you start installing the SMC TigerAccess Extended Ethernet CPE,
make sure you can provide the right operating environment. See the
following installation requirements:
• A PC or Macintosh with a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet adapter card
installed.
• For Internet access, the computer must be configured for TCP/IP.
• Power requirements: 12 VDC via the included AC power adapter.
Make sure that a properly grounded power outlet is within 1.8 m (6 ft)
of the CPE.
• The CPE should be located in a cool dry place, with at least 5 cm (2 in)
of space on all sides for ventilation.
• Place the CPE out of direct sunlight, and away from heat sources or
areas with a high amount of electromagnetic interference. The
temperature and humidity should be within the ranges listed in the
specifications.
• Be sure that the CPE is also accessible for the UTP Ethernet and
telephone cabling.
