Zoom USB Cable Modem User’s Manual

Multiple USB-compatible devices can share one USB port through

the use of a hub or splitter cables. Because the Zoom USB Cable

Modem is a high-speed network device, we advise against sharing

its USB port with low-speed peripherals such as keyboards,

printers, or joysticks. However, you can share the port with other

high-speed devices such as external CD-ROM drives.

All connections are made on the rear panel of the modem as

shown below.

1 

DO NOT connect the USB cable until after you install the

driver (see page 10).

2 

Connect the coaxial cable to the cable jack on your wall.

Connect the other end of the cable to the cable connector on

the back of the Zoom Cable Modem.

3 

Insert the small round end of the power cord into the power

socket on the back of the modem. Plug the power adapter into

the wall socket.

The cable modem now starts the automated power-up process that

is described below.

The lights on the front panel (see above) indicate the status of the

power-up and synchronization process.
The READY light comes on when you connect the power adapter

to the wall socket.
