The coaxial cable is run to a cable modem, which is connected to your computer via a Network Interface Card (NIC) or Universal Serial Bus (USB) port. CableAmerica is your complete ISP therefore no other services are required. However, if you decide to retain your old e-mail services they can be accessed through our CableAmerica network. Many services, such as AOL, are greatly enhanced by CableAmerica's speed.

There are several methods for computer connection, but it appears that Ethernet 10BaseT is emerging as the most predominant method. Although it probably would be cheaper to produce the cable modem as an internal card for the computer, this would require different printed-circuit cards for different kinds of computers, and additionally would make the demarcation between cable network and the subscriber's computer too fuzzy.

Coax is a standard cable that connects your tv and or cable modem to your wall outlet. Generaly the wiring for tv/broadband is done in coax cabeling called RG-6. The cable has a copper core surounded by a plastic sheathing, this is surounded by a braided outer cover of woven mesh wire and in turn is covered by an outer sheath. First, you need to provision your account (additional $5 per/mo.) for two computers. Contact HarborNet for this. Or you can purchase a small office router.

A We find that it is very important ... especially with high performance top-loaded antennas. Your safest bet is to use 18 feet (5.5 meters) coaxial leads on all of your CB installations.

The easiest and quickest way is to use a multimeter (ohmmeter). For each cable assembly, touch each of the 2 multimeter probes to the center conductor at each end of the cable. The multimeter should indicate a "short" or less than 1 ohm resistance. Extremely long cables will show more resistance. Also, touch each of the 2 probes to the sheild conductor at each end of the cable. The multimeter should indicate a "short" again.

The coaxial cable from the Orbitel network connects to a cable modem. That modem then connects to your PC or home PC network through a network interface card or USB port on your computer. Your Orbitel Installer will make all the necessary connections. No. One of the best advantages that Orbitel High Speed Internet is that you can talk on your phone and surf on the internet at the same time. No missed calls or frustrations when you can't call home while someone is on the computer.

Generally, no. Because of the high frequencies involved, special coax suitable for microwave use is required to keep the losses low. Several people have asked if they can substitute RG-58, RG-8 or RG-214. These coax types have unacceptably high losses at these frequencies. People occasionally ask about 75 ohm TV/satellite coax as well (RG-62), which is a definite no-go because of the incorrect impedance. Belden 9913 is questionable because of "water piping" problems.

When using coax, either the ground braid or the center conductor can be used. Unless you using one inch hardline the diameter of the braid is simply too small for high efficiency. Have I tried it on RG-8U and other types of coax? Yes. Does it work well? In my opinion the answer is no. One inch or even half inch copper pipe will work much much better. I would not recommend this strategy at all since every experiment of this type yielded poorly performing loops.

Yes, the USB cable can be used with a hub, rather than connected directly into a port on the computer.

Allways start with a complete power cycle or two and reboot the computer. Your computer might be broken, breaking, or glitching. Sometimes other people using your computer accidentally misconfigure it. You can check our "How to" section for instructions and try to set it up again if your a do-it-yourselfer. If you can't fix your computer, your more than welcome to bring it in to a repair shop. We have been doing computer repair for 13 years if you choose to bring it to us.

Yes. The specifications for composite video, component video and digital coaxial cables are EXACTLY the same! Since our PSC cable maintain a 75-ohm impedance from tip-to-tip, it is the perfect cable for each of these connections. For component video applications you will need three PSC cables (which we offer on our website in special component cable discount packages).

Technically, a coax connection will sound better because there is less processing to the signal. In certain situations, when experiencing EMI, RFI or long distance cable runs, using an Optical cable would be your best choice.

When using mic cable, the SetCom provides the best noise immunity and lowest cable loss. However, the difference between the two cable types are minimal in most circumstances. Only in situations with extremely high electrical noise or where cable runs exceed 500' (160m) might the difference between cable types be noticed.

The cable TV network is connected to a cable modem by a coaxial cable (like the one that connects your TV set to the cable TV network). The cable modem is then connected to your computer through an Ethernet cable and communicates with your computer through an Ethernet card that is already installed in your computer.

Attached is a link to our Quick Start guide, which demonstrates how to connect a satellite or cable feed to the AVX. Quick Start Guide: http://www.niveusmedia.com/support/AVX.htm Yes, DVI is supported. You can see the DVI input on the back of the unit at: http://www.niveusmedia.com/gallery/avx_rear.htm Yes, however, until such time this becomes available, the HDTV feed can still be routed through the computer via coaxial cable.

The fact that the word "modem" is used to describe this device can be a little misleading only in that it conjures up images of a typical telephone dial-up modem. Yes, it is a modem in the true sense of the word - it Modulates and Demodulates signals. But the similarity ends there because cable modems are practically an order of magnitude more complicated than their telephone counterparts.

This is a very common issue that arises as older legacy systems are updates to higher speeds and information carrying c (Read More)

im using a 22 inch TV connected via scart from a nvidia based video card and no matter what i change i cant seam to find a setting that allows me to read the screen from anything other than the mythtv frontend. if i try to browse the news feed once i select a story then font is to small and when i use an xterm the font is to small.

Partly from Apple's Manual "About Cables" ftp://manuals.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Manuals/newton/0308266ANCBLS.PDF] You can connect to your Newton using either a serial cable or an ethernet card (connection from a 2.1 device to MacOS computers only). Please note that using an Ethernet card means first installing the proper driver. The MP1x0 devices and the eMate 300 have a Mini-DIN-8 RS232 and LocalTalk compatible port.

Yes, bring a Category 5 Ethernet cable if you have one. You may also purchase a 25-foot cable for $10 when you arrive on campus.

When connecting the WinGate machine to the Internet through a Cable Modem, you first need to be sure to have two Network Interface Card???s (NIC???s) installed in that computer. One connected directly to your Cable Mode and the other connected directly to your internal network. ( You should not try connecting the Cable Modem directly to your network hub as this will cause severe security issues.

The only supported option is to connect to the "SDC2" connector. This will be on the rear of the ASPECT 3000 on the bottom of the board labeled A. It should be indicated by a diagram on the ASPECT chassis above the board. Use caution since there are multiple connectors on the back of the ASPECT that would be physically compatible with the supplied cable. Damage to the ASPECT may result if the cable is incorrectly attached.

Plug your G-LINK cable to the appropriate outlet at the back of your GUIDE Plus+ unit. Then place the infrared emitter part of the G-LINK cable in front of your external receiver so that the G-LINK infrared emitter is facing the infrared receiver of the external box.
