HDMI/DVI INPUT (High-Definition Multimedia Interface/Digital Visual Interface) Provides an uncompressed digital
connection that carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI technology is based
on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV is also compatible with DVI devices.

pin cable (sometimes referred to as 1/8" stereo mini pin) to connect your device to your TV.
