HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS
Most video/audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have
phono connectors. For best performance, video cables should use 75-Ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables can be
purchased from most stores that sell audio/video products. Below are illustrations and names of common
connectors. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of the output and input connector types required by the
various components and the length of each cable.
300-Ohm Twin Lead Connector
This outdoor antenna cable must be connected to
an antenna adaptor (300-Ohm to 75-Ohm).
"F" Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector
For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable TV) to
the antenna jack on the television.
Phono Connector
Used on all standard video and audio cables which
connect to inputs and outputs located on the
television's rear jack panel and front control panel.
Optical Cable
This cable can be used to connect to a component
with an Optical Audio Out jack, such as a Dolby*
Digital DVD player or an HDTV Set Top Box. Use
this cable for the best sound quality.
S-Video (Super Video) Connector
This connector is used on camcorders, VCRs, and
laserdisc players with an S-Video feature in place of
the standard video cable to produce a high-quality
picture.
ANTENNA CONNECTIONS TO REAR JACK PANEL

(75-Ohm) terminal. If you have a second antenna or cable TV system, connect the coaxial cable to the ANT B
terminal.
To outdoor antenna or CATV cable
VHF (300-Ohm) antenna/UHF antenna
When using a 300-Ohm twin lead from an outdoor antenna. connect the VHF or UHF antenna leads to screws of
