I am very sorry, but your Question is difficult to understand...

If you have a "cable modem" that is also a Router which provides Network-Services like DNS, DHCP, Firewall, Routing , etc..
Then you can use the Mikrotik css326-24g-2s+rm


BUT If you have a "cable modem" that is only a MODEM,
then you can NOT use the mikrotik css326-24g-2s+rm

To put information by @ConnyMercier in another words: CSS326 is a decent managed switch, but can not perform any of router's tasks ... so it can't run DHCP server, it can't route, it can't be firewall, it can't perform NAT ... nothing.
