Connecting your TV Overview of cable types Coaxial (F-type) cable Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna, cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT 1 and/or ANT 2 RF inputs on your TV. Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow) 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 for stereo left (or mono) audio. S-video cable S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection. Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video cable, be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video cable or the picture performance will be unacceptable. Component video cables (red/green/blue) both video and audio information; therefore, separate audio cables are not required for a complete HDMI device connection (- page 13). Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable. Dual-wand IR blaster/G-LINK™ cable Dual-wand IR blaster/G-LINK™ cable is for use with video devices with IR (infrared) remote control. This cable is for connection to the G-LINK™ terminal (- page 17) to enable TV Guide On Screen™ recording features (- TV Guide On Screen™ Interactive Program Guide). This cable also can be used with the TV's IR pass-through feature (- page 14). Notes: • This applies only to TV models that have the TV Guide On Screen™ feature. To verify whether your TV model has this feature, see the table on page 5. • The IR blaster/G-LINK™ cable included with your TV have specific characteristics that allow them to work properly with this TV's IR OUT and G-LINK™ ports. Never use other aftermarket IR blaster or G-LINK™ cables with this TV. Other cables may not function properly and can cause damage. THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR TOSHIBA WARRANTY. Optical audio cable Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with Dolby Digital or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical audio input to the TV's DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal (- page 16). Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable Component video cables come in sets of three and are for 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 for a complete connection. Note: Component video cables provide better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable. HDMI™ cable Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting a PC to the TV's PC IN terminal (- page 18). Ethernet (RJ-45) cable Ethernet (RJ-45) cable is used to connect the TV to your home network (- page 19 and the Operating Guide).
