Cable an HFC Connector Module or SIM

111

If you are not using internal chassis Fast Ethernet wiring (using a version 2 chassis and SIMs),
see “Cable a NIC Access Module” on page 115 for a description on how to connect the Fast
Ethernet ports of an HFC Connector Module or SIM to the NIC Access Module.

When connecting nodes to the upstream ports of an HFC
Connector Module or SIM, do not split a coaxial cable from
one node and attach it to more than one upstream port.
Doing so prevents you from using the complete features of
a DOCSIS Module that are designed for supporting four
separate nodes or four groups of nodes that are combined.

Both Fast Ethernet ports on the HFC Connector Module
and the SIM must be connected to the network.
