Cable Types

HDMI: HDMI, or High Definition Multimedia Interface, is the only interconnection scheme that can carry both audio and video on the same cable.

Coax: Coax is a shorthand way of saying “coaxial cable.” In the consumer audio/video industry, the term “Coax” is is a type of digital audio interconnect which uses an RCA style cable. Single coax video cables may be colored white or yellow; the component bundle may be colored red-green-blue. Coax can also carry a digital audio signal called SP/DIF.

S-Video: S-Video is a cable that separates the color portion of the video signal from the black and white portions. It is typically colored with a yellow or black tip.

Analog Stereo: Analog Stereo is an audio interconnect found usually on older equipment. As the name implies, the signals are analog and a stereo 2 channel signal is carried on RCA style connectors. Usually, these cables are colored red and white.

Which Cable Should I Use?

Your audio and video components may have multiple types of connectors, Which type should you use if you have a choice? Your choice of cables can affect the performance capabilities of your Wolf Cinema video projection system. The guide below will help you choose the optimum cable for your setup.

Cables to your Projector

The Wolf Cinema projector features a dedicated HDMI input, so use the appropriate length HDMI cable. Connect the cable from the Video/Audio connector on the back connector panel of the ProScaler to the HDMI input of the projector.

A RS-232 control cable may be required when integrating your Wolf Cinema projector to today’s latest home automation systems.

Audio Cabling to your AV Receiver or Surround Sound Processor

If your AV Receiver or Surround Sound Processor has HDMI inputs, you should use an HDMI to HDMI cable, connected between the HDMI Audio output of the Wolf Cinema’s ProScaler and an HDMI input on your receiver/processor.

If your AV Receiver does not have an HDMI input, then you will need to connect and associate each device’s audio output with the appropriate inputs on your receiver/processor.
