Chapter 1 Satellite modem overview The HN9000 satellite modem connects to the Internet or an intranet by satellite and provides Internet or intranet service to a single host, typically a computer , T opics: • Suppor ted configurations or to multiple hosts on a LAN.
Supported configurations This section shows examples of supported congurations using the HN9000 satellite modem. The satellite modem may be used in a single-host conguration or multiple-host conguration.
Figur e 4: Private network conguration on page 3 shows a private network using two satellite modems at two locations. The thick broken line shows how the network connects a PC at one location and to a PC at a second location. This conguration requires two antennas—one at each location.
One Ethernet port supporting 10BaseT or 100BaseT operation, RJ-45-switched Interface ports See Power supply information on page 4. Power supplies and power requirements Power supply information The power supply is included in the satellite modem shipping carton.
If there is any reason to remove power from the satellite modem, always unplug the AC power cord from the power source (power outlet, power strip, or surge protector). Do not remove the DC power cord from the modem’ s rear panel. Doing so could result in an electrical shock or damage the modem.
