Product Description:
Motorola's next-generation SURFboard SB5120 Cable Modem incorporates the latest DOCSIS 2.0 Advanced Time Division Multiple Access (A-TDMA) and Sychnronous Code Division Multiple Access (S-CDMA) technologies to provide up to three times greater upstream capacity than DOCSIS 1.0/1.1 systems. Packed with power, the SB5120 is interoperable and backward compatible with DOCSIS 1.0 and 1.1 for a fast and timely transition - operators can deploy the SB5120 today without a service interruption.The Motorola SURFboard SB5120 is flexible and allows operators to maximize their current infrastructure investments and also offer additional cost-effective services, all at the same time. Convenient for both operators and end-users alike, the SURFboard SB5120 ensures end-user security via a top-mounted stand-by switch that quickly isolates the USB and Ethernet connection to the PC without disconnecting the cable modem from the RF network. What's more, the SB5120 simplifies troubleshooting with its front panel status indicator LEDs and integrated HTML diagnostics page. The SURFboard SB5120 is competitively priced and includes many of the valuable features found in previous SURFboard models, such as USB and Ethernet connectivity, software upgrades available over the network, proven field reliability, a quality, advanced RF design, and a high-performance processor. Highly functional and attractive, the Motorola SURFboard SB5120 features a new, compact design that is a stylish and clutter-free addition to virtually any desktop.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - defective modem and seller doesn't refund
I tried twice with the cable company to hook this modem to the internet. It turned out to be a defective one. In addition, package received is incomplete, missing CD claimed. Seller is not willing to refund. My recommendation: not to buy from private sellers with limited reviews only.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great product
This modem was easy to install and seems to be doing everything I want it to.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - excellent
I like this item very much. It works well and the heat generated is very low. Also, the delivery is superb. It arrived very fast.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Died After 1 Yr 7 Mo.
Bought this product and it worked flawlessly up until it died after 1 year and 7 months. Resets were very uncommon, happening once every 3 months or so, although these were probably only needed due to errors by the ISP. I did run this modem 24x7 365 which may have led to its demise, but also it may have just been a bad apple; therefore, I'm giving it a 4 star rating.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - No Problems - Just Like to Want It
This item is nothing less than you would prefer when buying technology. Take it out of the box and use it. Set it and forget it.
