HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS
Most videolaudio
connections between components
can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have phone 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
adapter (300-Ohm to 75_Ohm).
"F" Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector
For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable TV) to the antenna
terminal 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.
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
VHF (75-Ohm) antenna/CATV
(Cable TV)
When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system, connect the outdoor
antenna or CATV coaxial cable to UHFNHF (75-Ohm) terminal.
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 the VHF or
UHF adapter.
Plug the adapter into the antenna terminal on the
TV.
When both VHF and UHF antennas are connected
Attach an optional
antenna
cable mixer to the TV antenna
terminal, and connect the cables to the antenna mixer. Consult
your dealer or service store for the antenna mixer.
