SBG941 Series SURFboard Wireless Cable Modem Gateway

Motorola’s integrated SBG941 Series cable modem gateways include stateful firewall protection and 
WEP (Wired Equivalency Privacy). The SBG941 Series cable modem gateways are also equipped with 
a built-in, easy-to-use Motorola Wi-Fi installation wizard -- a ‘zero-touch’ auto Wi-Fi provisioning tool 
-- which seamlessly configures a secure Wi-Fi connection on a user’s machine. When the Wi-Fi wizard 
is finished, a secure WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) encrypted wireless connection is established 
to the gateway, protecting the user’s machine from hacker attacks. Motorola’s embedded software 
enables Wi-Fi deployments with high levels of quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction, with low 
operational and support costs for the MSO.

Supporting the Wi-Fi home network is a new challenge for the cable industry. As the leading world-
wide provider of DOCSIS

®

 products, Motorola is helping ease cable operators into Wi-Fi delivery. 

By combining the highest-performing and lowest cost of ownership modems in the industry, with 
easy-to-use Wi-Fi installation and pairing tools as well as advanced remote management features, 
the SBG941 Series cable modem gateways are offering an all-in-one approach to broadband home 
networking. In addition, Motorola’s field-proven NBBS device management software platform pro-
vides the MSO with intelligent management, auto-provisioning, and remote management features to 
improve accuracy, efficiency, and customer satisfaction. These value-adding features enable remote 
device administration for improved accuracy and reduced support costs. The SBG941 Series cable 
modem gateways are compatible with Motorola’s NBBS scalable, carrier-grade software platform that 
enables cable operators to remotely access, configure, monitor, and troubleshoot their full portfolio of 
consumer devices, home networks, and services.

Motorola believes in “going 

green” — we have a global 

commitment to sustaining 

the environment. Motorola 

has been working for years 

to continually improve our 

environmental profile. We are 

in step with our customers 

and their increasing interest 

in partnering with a company 

that will help them reduce their 

carbon footprint, while offering 

compelling products that will 

help them grow their eco-

conscious customer base.

Motorola’s modems 

comply with international 

environmental and energy 

efficient standards, including 

ENERGY STAR qualified power 

supplies, European Code of 

Conduct compliance for both 

the power supply and modem, 

and lead-free circuit boards as 

certified by RoHS compliance.

The SBG941 Series 

uses Motorola’s new, 

environmentally friendly 

package design: our modems 

ship in single pack boxes. 

By both eliminating the 

suspension plastic and 

reducing the box size, 

Motorola is helping to reduce 

the environmental impact of 

the SBG941 Series. As an 

even more impactful step, 

operators may choose to 

receive the products in a bulk 

package, thus reducing the 

extra waste and transport 

weight associated with single 

packages. Motorola’s bulk 

packaging solutions eliminate 

excess installation CDs and 

USB cables. Additionally, 

customers have the option to 

reduce the number of cables 

shipped with each unit. The 

packaging is 100% recyclable. 

Our packaging is now labeled 

with standard recycling codes 

(such as     ) to make it easier 

for our customers to identify 

recycling opportunities.
