DTV Connectors and Adaptors

(Figure 1)

The TV back panel has 5 RCA-type connec- tors, for the DTV connection. The back panel of your DTV receiver may use RCA- type connectors or BNC-type connectors. If your DTV receiver comes with BNC type connections, you will need to purchase BNC to RCA adaptors to connect the TV to the DTV receiver. These adaptors should be available at most electronic supply stores.
