Installing

2.3 If you want to make a wired connection Option C

In this configuration you already have a TV, and a computer with a free ethernet connector (or a wired network with a free ethernet connector).

•You will be connecting an Ethernet network cable between the SL400i and your computer or network.

•You will connect the SL400i to the TV.

At the end, you will be able to send music, photos, and movies from your computer to your 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).

OR

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

–Push one end of the Ethernet cable into the connector marked 'Ethernet' on the back of the SL400i.

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