Audio Connection Options To connect your TV or a home theater receiver for audio, depending on
its capabilities, you can use one of the following VIP1200 audio outputs:
OPTICAL If the equipment supports it, use the OPTICAL output to deliver
S/PDIF Dolby audio. In most cases, it offers better quality,
including support for Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound.
AUDIO OUT
R and L
If the equipment does not support Dolby Digital, use the baseband
AUDIO L and R outputs to the TV or home theater receiver.
The cabling diagrams show sample audio/video (A/V) connections to a
home theater receiver, where the home theater receiver functions as an
A/V router. When connecting to a home theater receiver, refer to its
installation manual for information about its baseband or S/PDIF inputs.
