• Place this equipment on a stable surface.
• Postpone cable modem installation until there is no risk of thunderstorm or lightning activity in the area.
• It is recommended that the customer install an AC surge protector in the AC outlet to which this device is
connected. This is to avoid damaging the equipment by local lightning strikes and other electrical surges.
• Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of
electric shock from lightning. For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet, and disconnect the cable
system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power surges.
• Do not cover the device, or block the airflow to the device with any other objects. Keep the device away from
excessive heat and humidity and keep the device free from vibration and dust.
• Wipe the unit with a clean, dry cloth. Never use cleaning fluid or similar chemicals. Do not spray cleaners
directly on the unit or use forced air to remove dust.
• Avoid damaging the cable modem with static by touching the coaxial cabl e when it is attached to the earth-
grounded coaxial cable-TV wall outlet.
• Always first touch the coaxial cable connector on the cable modem when disconnecting or re-connecting USB
or Ethernet cable from the cable modem or the user’s PC.
• Operate this product only from the type of power source indicated on the product’s marking label. If you are
not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
• Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They
may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
• Disconnect the phone wire (RJ-11 cable) and unplug the power cable before removing the cover.
• Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
• Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks
to determine that the product is in safe operating condition.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Be sure that the outside cable system is grounded, so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges. Article 820-40 of the NEC (Section 54, Part I of the Canadian Electrical Code) provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies the CATV cable ground shall be connected in the
grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Introduction
Introduction Installation Troubleshooting Glossary License
Congratulations on your new Motorola SBV5220 Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) cable modem! It provides
high-speed access to the Internet and other online services, and connections for up to two telephone lines.
SBV5220 VoIP Cable Modem
Your SBV5220 V oIP cable modem transmits and receives data much faster than traditional dial-up or DSL (digital
subscriber line) modems. It lets you enjoy surfing the Web without the long wait. Because many network and other
factors can affect performance, the actual speed will vary.
Unlike a dial-up modem, your SBV5220 VoIP cable modem is always online. Just open your browser and surf!
Y ou can use your high-speed, upgradeable VoIP cable modem to connect one or more computers in your home or
business to the Internet. You can connect:
• A single computer equipped with a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port directly to the USB port on the SBV5220
VoIP cable modem
• A single computer equipped with an Ethernet adapter directly to the Ethernet port on the SBV5220 VoIP cable
modem
• Two computers, one to the USB port and one to the Ethernet port
• Up to 31 computers to a single SBV5220 VoIP cable modem using an Ethernet hub, as shown in “Cabling for
Multiple Users” on page 35
For easiest set-up, use the Installation Assistant on the SBV5220 VoIP Cable Modem CD-ROM.
SBV5220 VoIP Telephone Service
The SBV5220 also provides telephone service through your cable connection with the same features as your
traditional phone service, including standby power with an integrated battery backup in the event that you lose AC
power. You can connect up to two standard telephone lines using your SBV5220 VoIP cable modem, supporting:
• Local and long-distance calling
• Standby power support for a minimum of six hours standby or four hours talk time
• Standard telephone feature support. For a full listing, see “Tele phone Features Supported by the SBV5220”
on page 2.
• Telephon e modem and fax support
• HTML diagnostic page
• Software upgrades over the network to provide new or improved services
Caution
Use only a standard telephone. Digital phones used in many businesses that connect to a PBX
(private branch exchange) do not operate with the SBV5220.
