Getting To Know Your ZyXEL
Device
This chapter describes the key features and applications of your ZyXEL Device.
1.1 Overview
The ZyXEL Device is an embedded Multimedia Terminal Adapter (eMTA) device
built with two components: a DOCSIS 2.0 cable modem component for data
transfer and a PacketCable 1.5 MTA component for voice traffic. This means it can
provide high-speed Internet access as well as cost-effective, standard telephone
voice and fax/modem services through your cable service provider.
You can connect your computer to the ZyXEL Device either through a LAN or the
USB port. Connect your telephones to the PHONE ports if your VoIP company
gave you phone numbers.
