Cable connections for watching digital and/or conventional TV channels

This system is equipped with two terminals for inputting TV broadcasting signals, ANT/CABLE A IN and ANT B IN. The ANT/CABLE A IN terminal accepts both digital and conventional TV broadcasting signals while the ANT B IN terminal accepts only conventional TV broadcasting signals. When using cable TV to watch digital and/or conventional TV channels, connect to the ANT/CABLE A IN terminal as shown. To add an outdoor antenna for clearer pictures, connect an antenna to the ANT B IN terminal. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector, plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the Plasma Display.
