Connecting the Data Gateway

1 Connect one end of the coax cable to the cable outlet or splitter, and the

other end to the Data Gateway’s Cable connector (D). Tighten the con nec-

Note: For best performance, use high-quality coax cable and minimize or

eliminate splitters between the cable jack and the Data Gateway.

2 Insert the plug from the power cord into the Power connector on the back

of the Data Gateway (E) and insert the power cord into a convenient AC

outlet.
Model DG950S Only: Make sure that the rear panel power switch (F) is set

to the ON position.
The Power light on the front of the Data Gateway lights up, then flashes

once (refer to the LED tables shown in Using the Data Gateway). See
