Connecting External Devices 
4.1  Understanding Video Connections 
Your LCD TV is equipped with the latest technology for connecting video source devices such 
as DVD players, analog cable TV, digital set top boxes and gaming consoles. You can choose 
the appropriate connections depending on the devices that you are connecting and the level of 
display quality you are trying to achieve. 
Connector and 
Cable 
Description 
 
Coaxial (RF) 
Analog video and audio signals are transmitted via a single cable to an F-type 
connector on the video source device. 
DVI (Digital Video Interface) 
The DVI connector is used to attach the LCD TV to a personal computer, 
providing a large screen display for your computing needs. 
 
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) 
Use of a single cable for audio and video improves the home theater system 
installation experience and eliminates the need for a separate digital audio cable. 
Most importantly, HDMI offers significant advantages over traditional analog 
A/V connections, including the ability to transmit uncompressed digital video 
and audio content. 
 
Composite Video 
Composite video is the standard that connects almost all consumer video 
equipment 
− TVs, laser disc players, VCRs, camcorders and gaming consoles. 
Composite video combines the three basic elements of a video picture (color, 
brightness, and synchronization data) into a single combined (“composite”) 
signal. 
 
S-Video 
S-Video, professionally known as Y/C video, carries the Y and C signals 
separately. This makes for a sharper image on the receiving device when 
compared with composite video.
