Connecting Your TV

The tables below provide a description of the connectors on your TV to help you decide which
connectors to use for your various video devices.

NOTE: Before you connect your TV , ensure you have all the proper cables. Some cables may come with

the device you are connecting. For a list of cables that came with your TV, see Package Contents on
page 8. To order additional cables, contact Dell.

Connecting Your Cable TV Box or Antenna

Quality Cable and Connector When to Use

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

Good Coaxial cable / NTSC/ANALOG Coaxial (RF) cable carries the analog video

and audio signal from the antenna or cable
connector to your TV. The coaxial connector
is labeled NTSC/ANALOG. To locate the
NTSC connector, see "Bottom View" on
page 7.

Better Coaxial cable / HDTV/DIGITAL The Coaxial cable carries the digital video

and audio signal from the antenna connector
to your TV. The coaxial connector is labeled
HDTV/DIGITAL. To locate the HDTV
connector, see "Bottom View" on page 7.

12 Setting Up Your TV

Connecting Your Video Devices

Quality Cable and Connector When to Use

Good Composite cable / AV1,2 IN (Bottom)

Video, Left, Right (Left)

The composite connector carries the video
signal through a single pin. If you are using a
composite video connector, you also need to
connect composite audio cables. To locate the
composite connectors, see "Left View" on
page 6 and "Bottom View" on page 7.

Better S-Video cable / AV1,2 IN (Bottom)

S-Video, Left, Right (Left)

The S-Video connector splits the video signal
into two signals, black-and-white and color. If
you are using the S-Video connector, you also
need to connect the audio cables. To locate the
S-Video connectors, see "Left View" on page 6
and "Bottom View" on page 7.

Setting Up Your TV 13

Quality Cable and Connector When to Use

Best Component (YPbPr) cable / AV3,4 IN The component connectors split the video

signal into three signals, two color and one
black-and-white. If you are using the
component connectors, you also need to
connect the audio cables. To locate the
component connectors, see "Bottom View" on
page 7.

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

Excellent HDMI cable / HDMI IN (1,2) HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)

assures that the best video signal is always sent
from source (HDTV signal, DVD player) to the
TV. This is achieved by allowing uncompressed
video and multi-channel audio data to be sent
to the display device through a single cable. To
locate the connector, see "Bottom View" on
page 7.
