Connecting Antennas
This section shows how to connect a cable TV with or without a cable box, and how to
connect an indoor or outdoor antenna.

Cable TV without a Cable Box: If you
have a cable TV and do not use a cable box,
connect the cable to RF (CABLE) INPUT on the
rear of the Set-Top Box.
2
Cable TV with a Cable Box: If you have
a cable box, connect as shown in the
illustration to the right.
If you want to connect a VCR with your cable
box, see the section on how to connect a
VCR with a cable box in page 1.7 .

Indoor/Outdoor Antenna: You may
need a 75Ω adaptor or a combiner, as
shown in the illustration right.
NOTES
• If your antenna has separate leads for VHF/UHF signals, you will need to purchase a
combiner and connect it as shown in illustration above.
• The Set-Top Box can receive DTV signals in the event that a local cable provider is passing
8VSB through on their system.
