Connections

Cable with a Cable Box that Descrambles Some (But Not All) Channels

To complete this connection you will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four coaxial cables (which you can buy from your Samsung dealer or any electronics store).

Find and disconnect the

1 cable that is connected to the ANTENNA IN terminal of your Splitter.

This terminal might be labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN” or simply, “IN”. Connect this cable to a two-way splitter.

Connect a coaxial cable

2 between an OUT terminal of the splitter and the IN terminal of the Cable box.

Connect a coaxial cable

3 between the ANTENNA OUT terminal of the Cable box and the B-IN terminal of the RF (A/B) switch.

Connect another cable

4 between the other OUT terminal on the splitter and the A–IN terminal on the RF (A/B) switch.

Connect the last coaxial

5 cable between the OUT terminal of the RF (A/B) switch and the ANT 1 IN (CABLE) on the TV.

After you’ve made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing.

Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to “B”, you will need to tune your Set-Top Box to the Cable box's output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)
