3.1 Connecting the Technicolor Gateway to your Service
Provider’s Network
Introduction
This section helps you to connect the Technicolor Gateway to your service provider’s network.
Signal arriving at your home
The Line signal that arrives at your home consists the following components:
A Phone signal carrying the traffic for telephony.
A DSL signal carrying the Internet traffic.
DSL Gateways have a built-in solution to remove the Phone component. No additional devices are needed, you can
connect them directly to the Line.
Telephones do not have this capability, so here you have to use a filter or splitter to remove the DSL signal.
How does a filter/splitter look like
A splitter/filter is a box that typically has the following connectors:
A Line input
This connector must be connected to the input signal that needs to be filtered.
A Phone/PSTN output
This connector offers filtered output signal. It only contains the Vo i c e component and can only be used for connecting
phones.
A Modem/DSL output (optional)
This connector offers unfiltered output. It contains both the Phone and DSL signal and can be used to connect your
Te c h n i c o l o r G a t e w a y .

Proceed as follows:
1 Take the DSL cable. This is the grey cable that is included in your box.
