The present invention relates to an improved mounting for stacking modem devices. Each mounting includes stacking feet and stacking slots that permit the mountings to be securely stacked on top of one another. Each mounting is configured to receive a modem device. Each mounting also includes connectors configured to interconnect with corresponding connectors of the modem device. For instance, each mounting and the modem have interconnecting power connections, RJ-45 connections, cable connections, and serial data connections. The modem devices can be slid into place for testing, initialization or installation without disassembling the stack. The present invention also provides configuring the mountings so the multiple modem devices can be connected back to back and communicating without a hybrid fiber/coax network connection.
