●● HDMI
●● Component
●● AV
Connect the video device to the TV via an HDMI connector for the best picture quality. If the device does not have an HDMI connector, try a component connector to get the next best possible picture quality.
The number of connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the model.
When connecting an external device, refer to the device's operating manual. The number of external device connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the manufacturer.
HDMI Connection
Refer to the diagram and connect the HDMI cable to the video device's HDMI output connector and the TV's HDMI input connector. One of the following HDMI cable types is recommended:
●● High-Speed HDMI Cable
●● High-Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet

"" This SMART TV does not support the HDMI Ethernet Channel.
"" The number of connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the model.
Component Connection
For the LED 7500 series models, connect the TV’s component video and audio input connectors to the external device’s component video and audio output connectors using a component cable, so that the connectors of the same colour connect to each other, as shown in the figure.
For the LED 8000 and PDP 8500 series models, connect a component cable to the provided two jack- to-RCA extension cables, so that the connectors of the same colour connect to each other. Plug the two jacks into the TV’s component video and audio input connectors, and plug the five connectors on the other end into the external device’s component video and audio output connectors, as shown in the figure.
AV Connection
Refer to the diagram and connect the AV cable to the TV's external input connectors and the device's AV output connectors.

"" The connectors names and locations may vary depending on the model.
"" The connectors may not be supported depending on the model.

However, ARC is only available through the HDMI (ARC) port and only when the TV is connected to an ARC-enabled AV receiver. Connect the HDMI cable to the TV's HDMI (ARC) connector and the device's HDMI output connector.
"" Certain functions such as the Smart Hub may not be available if 3D Auto View is set to On while Source is in HDMI mode. In this case, set 3D Auto View or 3D Mode to Off.
"" The number of connectors and their names and locations may vary depending on the model.
Computer Connection
This SMART TV has the following computer connection ports:
●● HDMI
●● HDMI-to-DVI

"" The connectors names and locations may vary depending on the model.
Smartphone Connection
This SMART TV supports MHL (Mobile High-definition Link) via an MHL cable. MHL makes it possible to enjoy video, image, and audio files from mobile devices on your TV. However, MHL is only available through the TV's HDMI (MHL) port and only when used in conjunction with an MHL-enabled mobile device. Connect the MHL-to-HDMI cable to the TV's HDMI (MHL) port and the mobile device's USB port.

Network Configuration
Connecting the TV to a network gives you access to online services such as the Smart Hub and AllShare Play, as well as software updates.
Wired Network
There are three ways to connect the TV to a Local Area Network (LAN).
●● External Modem
●● IP Router + External Modem
●● Wall-mounted LAN Outlet
Wireless Network
Connect the TV to the Internet using a standard router or modem.
Wireless Network Precautions
●● This TV supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n communication protocols. Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11n. Otherwise when you play video over a network connection, the video may not play smoothly.
●● To use a wireless network, the TV must be connected to a wireless router or modem. If the wireless router supports DHCP, the TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.
●● Select a channel that is not currently in use for the wireless router. If the channel set for the wireless router is currently being used by another device, the result is usually interference and/or a communications failure.
●● Most wireless networks have an optional security system. To enable a wireless network's security system, you need to create a security key using characters and numbers. This security key is then needed to connect to the wireless network.
Network Security Protocols
The TV only supports the following wireless network security protocols and is unable to connect to non-certified wireless routers:
●● Authentication Modes: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK
●● Encryption Types: WEP, TKIP, AES
If the wireless router has been set to Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and the Encryption Type to WEP or TKIP, Samsung SMART TVs will not support the connection in compliance with the new Wi-Fi certification specifications.
If the wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), it is possible to connect to the network using PBC (Push Button Configuration) or a PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS automatically configures the SSID and WPA key settings.
