Connecting An Antenna Or Analog Cable; Adding A Splitter - Sling Media Slingbox User Manual

Connecting an Antenna or Analog Cable

Use this setup if your TV source is antenna or analog cable only, without a cable box. Connect the incoming antenna
or cable line to Antenna/Cable In on Slingbox. Once connected, continue to connect Slingbox to the network. See
"Connecting Slingbox to your Home Network" on page 21.

Adding a Splitter

If the incoming antenna or cable line from the wall in your home is connected directly to your TV, you will need to use
a coaxial splitter (not included) to send your TV source to your TV and to your Slingbox. See below if you have a cable
modem sharing the cable line.
Using a Cable Modem
If you have a cable modem, you may be able to receive your basic cable channels from the same coaxial cable that
supplies your Internet connection. If so, use a splitter, with one cable connected to your cable modem and one
connected to Slingbox, as shown. Be sure to connect Slingbox to your router. See "Connecting Slingbox to your Home
Network" on page 21
Important
You cannot use S-Video or A/V Out from Slingbox to
your TV if you use this setup.
