2.3 If you want to make a wired connection

Option C

In this configuration your Streamium LCD TV and computer already have a free ethernet connector (or a wired network with a ethernet connector).

You will be connecting an Ethernet network cable between the Streamium LCD TV and your computer or wired network.

You will be able to send music, photos, and movies from your computer to your Stremium TV.

Ethernet ports and cables look just like telephone connections and lines, but are thicker and wider. Ethernet (RJ-45) connectors have eight contacts, whereas standard telephone line (RJ-11) connectors have four or six.

Important: only use CAT.5 shielded Ethernet cable (STP).

1a Use a crossover Ethernet cable if you want to connect the Streamium LCD TV directly to your computer.

In a crossover Ethernet cable, the arrangement of the coloured wires changes between the two ends.

Push one end of the Ethernet cable into the connector on the back of the Streamium LCD TV.

Push the other end into the Ethernet connector of your computer.

Note :Your computer needs to have an Ethernet connector available.

OR

1b Use a straight-through Ethernet cable if you want to connect the Streamium LCD TV to an existing computer network.

In a straight-through Ethernet cable, both ends have the same arrangement of coloured wires.

Push one end of the Ethernet cable into the connector on the back of the Streamium LCD TV.

Push the other end into a free Ethernet connector on your central network device, like a hub, switch or router.

Note :Your network needs to have an Ethernet connector available.
