Declaration of Conformance
WARNING: This is a Class B product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take adequate
measures. Adequate measures include increasing the physical distance between this product and other electrical devices. Changes or modifications to this unit not
expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
United States: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the device.
• Increase the distance between the equipment being interfered with and the device.
• Connect the device to an outlet on a circuit different from the outlet to which the equipment being interfered with is connected.
• Consult the retailer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
United States: This device complies with 47 CFR Part 68 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following four conditions:
1. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established Rules which permit this device to be directly connected to the telephone network. Standardized
jacks are used for these connections. This equipment should not be used on party lines or coin phones.
2. If this device is malfunctioning, it may also be causing harm to the telephone network; this device should be disconnected until the source of the problem can be
determined and until repair has been made. If this is not done, the telephone company may temporarily disconnect service.
3. The telephone company may make changes in its technical operations and procedures; if such changes affect the compatibility or use of this device, the telephone
company is required to give adequate notice of the changes. You will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
4. If the telephone company requests information on what equipment is connected to their lines, inform them of:
• The telephone number to which this unit is connected.
• The ringer equivalence number. [0.XB] (Indicated on the label)
• The USOC jack required. [RJ11C]
• The FCC Registration Number. [XXXUSA-XXXXX-XX-E] (Indicated on the label)
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine how many devices can be connected to your telephone line. In most areas, the sum of the REN's of all
devices on any one line should not exceed five (5.0). If too many devices are attached, they may not ring properly.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Operations within the 5.15 ~ 5.25 GHz band are restricted to
indoor use only.

NVG37X Ethernet and FTTH Gateway Quick Start Guide
Introduction
Use this Quick Start Guide to install, configure, and perform basic troubleshooting for the ARRIS™ NVG37X Ethernet and FTTH Gateway.
Power Supply Installation
Connect the power supply cord to the power jack on the gateway. Plug the power supply into an appropriate electrical outlet.
WARNING: The power supply must be connected to an outlet with a protective earth connection. Do not defeat the protective earth connection.
Product Ventilation
The gateway is intended for residential use. Position the gateway in an upright vertical position and locate it where temperatures remain within a range
of 32° – 104°F (0° – 40°C) and where heat from the unit itself is not trapped. There must be at least two inches (2”) of clearance on all sides except the
bottom.
Gateway Positioning, Status Indicator Lights and Port Configuration
Proper positioning of the gateway is essential for proper cooling. Colored LEDs on the gateway indicate the status of various port activity.
Powering and LED Status
Press the power button on the back of the gateway. The Power indicator will light GREEN to indicate that the gateway is powered correctly. Under
normal operation, while the gateway is powering up, LED status is as follows:
• Broadband, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Phone indicators will be off.
• Ethernet and Wi-Fi indicators will light GREEN to indicate that Ethernet and wireless devices are connected.
• Broadband indicator will initially light AMBER, and upon service connectivity, it will light GREEN.
• Phone indicator will light GREEN after the Broadband indicator lights GREEN to indicate that digital phone service is active.
NOTE: On initial setup, it may take several minutes to achieve service connectivity.
ONT Broadband: Use the following procedure to connect the gateway to Optical Network Termination (ONT) Ethernet.
1. Connect the supplied Ethernet cable to the ONT Broadband port on the back of the gateway.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the ONT connection.
SFP Broadband: This connection is NOT USER SERVICABLE and should be installed and configured by a technician only.
Phone Line: Use the following procedure to connect a phone to the gateway.
1. Connect the supplied RJ11 terminated phone cable to the Phone port on the back of the gateway.
2. Connect the phone cable to a phone or fax machine.
NOTE: Use an RJ-14 to RJ-11 splitter to connect two phone lines.
