iNID (intelligent Network Interface Device) system includes three
components: the i3822V (outside unit), the iPSU (power supply unit), and the i38HG
(inside unit). These components depend on each other and do not have standalone
functions. These components provide triple-play service (voice, data, and video) to the
subscriber’s home.
i3822V (outside unit)
The i3822V is the gateway that acts as the network interface device. It is installed by
the service provider technician on the outside of the home. The i3822V includes a
broadband interface and high-speed coaxial and phone line network capabilities to
deliver data service to the home. The i3822V has two accessible areas, one for
service provider personnel and the other for subscribers.
