Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles Some Channels

If your cable box descrambles only some channels (such as premium channels), follow the instructions below. You will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch and four lengths of coaxial cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)

Find and disconnect the cable that is connected to the ANTENNA IN terminal on your cable box.

This terminal might be labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN”or simply, “IN”.

Connecting Cable TV

Splitter

Connect a coaxial cable between an OUTPUT terminal on the splitter and

the IN terminal on the cable box.

Connect a coaxial cable between the ANTENNA OUTterminal on the cable box and the B–IN terminal on the

RF(A/B) switch.

Connect another cable between the other OUT terminal on the splitter and the A–IN terminal on the RF

(A/B) switch.

Connect the last coaxial cable between the OUT terminal on the RF (A/B) switch and the VHF/UHF

terminal on the rear of the TV.

After you’ve made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing. Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to “B”, you will need to tune your TV to the cable box’s output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)
