Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the D-Link “Broadband Cable Modem with USB &
Ethernet” DCM-202, which is an MCNS DOCSIS™ 2.0 cable modem featuring
the latest DOCSIS technology.
The cable modem enables your network cable operator to provide you with
broadband applications such as telecommunications, IP dedication for your
small office/home office (SOHO), or high-speed residential Internet access.
The cable modem provides a downstream speed of up to 38Mbps from the
cable network to your computer and 30Mbps from your computer to the cable
network.
The DES data encryption helps ensure privacy for the transmitted information.
Another distinctive feature of the cable modem is its easy installation, because
DHCP and TFTP clients can obtain automatic access to the IP address and
configuration from their network servers via the modem. SNMP agents permit
remote configuration and monitoring from a management station equipped with
an SNMP server.
