Ventilation requirements

To prevent overheating, allow adequate ventilation and airflow around the Moxi. The Moxi 3012 requires at least a two-inch (5 cm) clearance on top and all sides with airflow to the rear.

Available ports

Before connecting the Moxi 3012, consider the equipment to which it

will be connected. Is your TV standard definition (SD) or high defini- 6 tion TV (HDTV)? Is there a receiver? If so, does it accept S/PDIF? Are

you connecting an external storage device? If so, is it eSATA?

The characteristics of the connections offered on the Moxi 3012 are listed in table 3 (video cables), table 4 on page 54 (audio cables), and table 5 on page 55 (external hard drives).

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HDMI

A digital audio and video connection capable of displaying 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i video resolution.

 

 

 

 

The TV must be HDCP-compliant. If your TV has a DVI-D port but no HDMI port, you may use video out-

 

 

 

 

put from the Moxi 3012 with an HDMI to DVI conversion cable. If an HDMI cable or an HDMI to DVI con-

 

 

 

 

version cable is used along with an intermediate device such as an audio/video receiver, video might not

 

 

 

 

be passed through the intermediate device to the TV. If this happens, connect the Moxi 3012 directly to

 

 

 

 

the TV.

 

 

 

 

When configuring 480i, the output connection is automatically routed to the port into which the TV is

 

 

 

 

plugged.

 

 

 

 

You can also have video out from an HDMI cable and an analog port.
