About Connections

Connectivity Guide

Always connect a device to the TV with the highest quality connection available. Also, use good quality cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and sound.

When you connect a device, the TV recognizes its type and gives each device a correct type name. You can change the type name if you wish. If a correct type name for a device is set, the TV automatically switches to the ideal TV settings when you switch to this device in the Sources menu.

If you need help to connect several devices to the TV, you can visit the Philips TV connectivity guide. The guide offers information on how to connect and which cables to use.

HDMI cables support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP is a copy protection signal that prevents copying content from a DVD disc or Bluray Disc. Also referred to as DRM (Digital Rights Management).

HDMI ARC

All of the HDMI connections on the TV have HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel).

If the device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS), also has the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to any of the HDMI connections on this TV. With the HDMI ARC connection, you do not need to connect the extra audio cable that sends the sound of the TV picture to the HTS. The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals.

You can use any HDMI connection on this TV to connect the HTS but ARC is only available for 1 device/connection at a time.

HDMI MHL

Go to www.connectivityguide.philips.com

Antenna port

If you have a Set-top box (a digital receiver) or Recorder, connect the antenna cables to run the antenna signal through the Set-top box and/or Recorder first before it enters the TV. In this way, the antenna and the Set-top box can send possible additional channels to the Recorder to record.

HDMI ports

HDMI Quality

An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio signals. Use an HDMI cable for TV signal.

For best signal quality transfer, use a High speed HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI cable longer than 5 m.

With HDMI MHL, you can send what you see on your Android smartphone or tablet to a TV screen.

The HDMI 4 connection on this TV incorporates MHL 2.0 (Mobile High-Definition Link).

This wired connection offers great stability and bandwidth, low latency, no wireless interference and good quality sound reproduction. On top of that, the MHL connection will charge the battery of your smartphone or tablet. Although connected, your mobile device will not be charging when the TV is on standby.

Inform yourself about what passive MHL cable is suited for your mobile device. In particular, with the HDMI connector for the TV on one side, the type of connector you need to connect to your smartphone or tablet.
