5)S-VIDEO– Provides the best picture quality, better than VIDEO RCA-type or RF coaxial cable jacks. If your TV has an S-Video jack, use it along with the audio jacks (S-Video only carries picture information, not sound) to connect to your TV.

6)VIDEO (Yellow) – Provides better picture quality than the OUT TO TV jack. Connect the second RCA-type composite VIDEO jack to another device, such as a VCR. You must also connect the AUDIO cables when using the VIDEO connection.

7)AUDIO (R-Red and L-White)– Audio cables offer better sound quality than RF coaxial cables. You can connect a second set of audio cables to another component, such as a VCR or stereo.

8)USB PORT – For future use.

9)PHONE – Connects the DIRECTV Receiver to a telephone wall jack. We require a land-based telephone connection to communicate periodically with your DIRECTV Receiver.

10)POWER – Connects the DIRECTV Receiver to an electrical outlet. We recommend you use

a surge protector to safeguard your DIRECTV Receiver from power spikes. Your DIRECTV Receiver is rated to operate at 100-240V, with the appropriate power cord.
