Installing the MoCA Adapters
9. Check if the coaxial cable is connected to an RF splitter. If it is not, then disconnect the
cable from your cable modem and connect it to the IN connector on the RF splitter
(included); see Figure 9.
10. Connect a third coaxial cable (included) to one of the OUT connectors on the RF splitter
(included) and the Cable connector on your cable modem (see Figure 9).
Notes:
ο
You can use either OUT connector on the RF splitter (included) for this installation.

You may want to install a MoCA filter (included) between your cable modem and RF
splitter (see Figure 9) to ensure maximum cable modem network performance.
11. Connect a fourth coaxial cable (included) to the other OUT connector on the RF splitter
and the Coax In connector on the SBM1100 adapter (see Figure 9).
12. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the SBM1100 adapter and one of the
LAN Ethernet ports on your router (see Figure 9).
Note: Make sure your router (WAN port) and modem (Ethernet port) are connected via an
Ethernet cable.
13. Connect one of the power adapters (included) to the Power port on the SBM1100 and
plug it into an electrical wall outlet (see Figure 9).
ο
The Coax LEDs on both MoCA adapters should turn ON within five minutes to
indicate that a secure coaxial link was established between the two adapters.
ο If the Coax LED does not turn ON within five minutes, disconnect the power adapter
from both MoCA adapters and then reconnect them, if the Coax LEDs still fail to
turn ON, see
14. Power ON your Smart TV, set-top box, laptop, and any other Ethernet-connected devices.
