Connecting Devices to the Modem
Figure 4: Connecting Devices
On the rear panel of your modem are input jacks to connect devices to the modem.
As shown in the diagram, there are jacks for connection to a “phone” and to a phone
“line.” The connector labeled Line (Telco) is meant to be connected to a standard
analog phone line. To help reduce the load on your phone line, it is recommended
that the modem be the only device connected. You should remove all other devices
from your telephone line while the modem is in use.
