  • Page 13: Connecting Cables

    CONNECTING CABLES You want ports? Spectrum’s got ports! Let’s go over the various things you can connect to it. NOTE: With so many ports available, it isn’t surprising that not everyone intends to use the same cable types or cable lengths. Our surveys show that because of this, more than half the cables we could have included in the box would have gone to waste.
  • Page 14 2. Connect a video cable. • Connect one end of an HDMI cable to one of the HDMI ports on the rear of the monitor and the other end to the HDMI port on the source device. • Connect one end of a DisplayPort cable to the DisplayPort connector on the rear of the monitor and the other end to the DisplayPort connector on the source device.
  • Page 15 3. Connect an upstream cable for the built-in USB hub. • If you connected Spectrum to the video source device using USB Type-C, this same cable can double as the upstream cable for the built-in USB hub. • If you connected Spectrum to the video source device using HDMI or DisplayPort, you will need to connect the Type-B connector on a USB upstream cable to the USB Type-B upstream port on the rear of the monitor.
  • Page 16 4. Connect the AC adapter and power cord. Connect the power cord to the AC adapter and plug the other end into a grounded AC outlet. Then connect the adapter to the DC power connector on the rear of the monitor. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment: Plug the cord into a grounded (earthed) outlet.

You can select which of the connected host devices controls the USB hub from the on-screen display (OSD) menu.
