Installation Variables
Before installing the GigaCenter, consider what additional services may be implement-
ed. Various Ethernet and telephone ports are available on the back of the unit which
may or may not be used. Prior to determining the unit’s fi nal location, you need to
account for the following variables:
• Where will the telephone lines be routed?
• Where will the Ethernet cables be routed?
• What type of building material is used in the home? Make sure you have the
appropriate drills, drill bits and fasteners for routing subscriber services and/or
power cables as they pass through walls and the like.
