Overview of cable types

Cables can be purclmsed from most stores that sell audio/ video devices. Beibre purchasing any cables, be sure of

connector types required by your devices and the length of each cable.

Coaxial{F-type) cane

Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna, cable TV service, and/or cable converter box

to the ANT/CABLE input on your TV.

StandardA/V canes {red/whRe/yeRow)

'_'_ ,@

Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of three, and are for use with video devices with

analog audio and composite video output. These cables (and the related inputs on your TV) are typically color-

coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white .t\_r stereo left (or mono) audio.

Componentvideo canes (red/green/blue)

,_. Component video cables come in sets of three and are

.t_r use with video devices with component video output. (ColorStream _ is Toshiba's brand of component video.)

These cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate audio cables are required .t)r a complete

connection.

Note: Component video cables provide better

picture performance than a standard (composite)

video.

Opticalaudio cane

Optical audio cable is t_r connecting receivers with Dolby Digital or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical

audioinputto the TV's DIGITALAUDIOOUTtermimfl

(L:e page 18).

AnalogRG8(15-pin)computercane

Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is I)r connecting a PC to the TV's PC JRterminal (_:<page 18).

Aboutthe connectionillustrations

You can connect different types and braMs of devices to your TV in several different configurations. The connection

illustrations in this manual are representative of typical device connections only. The input/output terminals on your devices may differ from those illustrated herein. For

details on connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each device's owner's manual.

HDlYll®cane (with HDM] Logo"F-Ific::mrll|°'')

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is .t_r use with devices with an HDMI output. An

HDMI cable delivers digital audio and video in its native _rmat. This cable carries both video and audio

inl)rmation; therefore, separate audio cables are not required for a complete HDMI device connection (_

page 16 and page 19).

Note: HDM/ cable provides better picture

performance than a standard (composite) video.
