Chapter 2    Installing the EuroDOCSIS Wireless Residential Gateway with  Voice 11 TP-00115 Installation Preparations Before installing  the residential  gateway, make sure that your system meets or exceeds  the requirements  listed in this section. Also, make sure  that you have prepared your home  and home  devices  as described  in this  section. What Are the System Requirements for Internet Service? To ensure  that your  residential  gateway operates efficiently  for high-speed  Internet service,  you must have  an Internet-capable  PC, Mac, or Internet  appliance equipped with an Ethernet  port or Wi-Fi  capability. Note: You  will also need  an active cable input line  and an Internet  connection. What Are the Requirements for Telephone Service? If you intend  to use the residential  gateway for digital telephone  service,  verify  that your home meets or exceeds  all of the following  requirements. Maximum Number of Telephones The RJ-11 telephone-style  connectors  on the residential  gateway can  each provide telephone  service  to multiple telephones,  fax machines, and analog modems.   The maximum number  of telephone  devices connected  to each RJ-11 port is limited by the total Ringing  Load of the telephone  devices  that are connected.  Many telephone  devices  are marked with a Ringer  Equivalent  Number (REN). Each telephone  port on the residential  gateway can support up to a 5 REN  load.  The sum of the REN load on all of the telephone  devices  attached to each port must not exceed 5 REN. Telephone Device Types You can use telephone  devices  that are not labeled  with a REN number, but the maximum number  of attached telephone  devices  cannot be accurately calculated. With telephone  devices that are not labeled,  each device should be connected  and the  ring  signal should be tested before  adding more devices.  If too many telephone devices  are attached and the ring  signal can no longer  be heard, telephone  devices should be removed  until the ring  signal works  properly. Telephones,  fax machines,  and other  telephone  devices  use the center  2 pins of the RJ-11 connectors  to connect  to your primary  service.  The outer 2 pins of the connector  may be provisioned  to provide  a second  telephone  line. Contact your service  provider  for more information.
Installation Preparations TP-00115  12 Dialing Requirements All of your telephones  should be set to use Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency  (DTMF) dialing. Pulse  dialing may not be supported by your local service  provider. Telephone Wiring Requirements The residential  gateway supports connecting  to the interior  telephone  wiring  as well as connecting  directly to a telephone  or fax machine. The maximum distance from the  unit to the most distant telephone  device  must not exceed 1000 feet (300 meters). Use 26-gauge twisted-pair, or larger,  telephone  wiring.
