5.2 About cables

Cable quality

Before you connect devices to the TV, check which connectors are available on the device. Connect the device to the TV with the highest quality connection available. Good quality cables ensure a good transfer of picture and sound. Read the other chapters of About cables .

The connections diagrams shown in Help > Connections > Connect devices are recommendations. Other solutions are possible.

HDMI

An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio signals. Use an HDMI cable for High Definition (HD) TV signals. An HDMI cable transfers picture and sound signals in only one direction. Do not use an HDMI cable longer than 5m.

EasyLink HDMI-CEC

If your devices are connected with HDMI and have EasyLink, you can operate them with the TV remote control. Read more about EasyLink in Help > Setup > Devices > EasyLink HDMI-CEC.

HDMI-ARC

If you have a Home Theatre System with an HDMI -ARC (Audio Return Channel) connection, you can connect this device with the TV with only a HDMI cable. Use the HDMI1 ARC connection.

You can skip the audio cable that is added normally (the cable that connects the TV Digital audio Out to the device Digital audio In). The return audio connection in this HDMI -ARC connector is built -in. You do not need a special HDMI cable.

You can leave the ARC channel switched on if you use the additional digital audio cable. Still you can switch off HDMI -ARC. To switch off the ARC in the HDMI 1 connection, press h > Setup > TV settings > EasyLink > HDMI 1 ARC, select Off and press OK.

DVI to HDMI

Use a DVI to HDMI adapter if your device only has a DVI connection. Use one of the HDMI connections and add an Audio L/R cable to Audio In VGA/HDMI for sound, on the back of the TV.

Copy protection

ADVI and HDMI cable support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection). HDCP is a copy protection signal that prevents copying content from a DVD disc or Blu-ray Disc. Also referred to as DRM (Digital Rights Managament).

Y Pb Pr

Use the Component Video YPbPr connection together with an Audio Left and Right connection for sound.

Match the YPbPr connector colours with the cable plugs when you connect. YPbPr can handle High Definition (HD) TV signals.

Scart

A scart cable combines video and audio signals. Scart connectors can handle RGB video signals but cannot handle High Definition (HD) TV signals.
