Using Your VAIO Computer

Connecting to a standard antenna

You can connect your computer to an indoor/outdoor antenna system, using Option 1 or Option 2 from the previous section, Connecting to standard cable access (CATV) (page 46). Depending on the type of antenna system in your home, your connection may require a VHF/UHF RF combiner/transformer (not supplied) to connect the computer and the indoor/outdoor antenna system.

If you are connecting to an indoor/outdoor antenna, you may need to reorient the antenna for best reception. Move the antenna cable away from other power sources or connectors to reduce signal interference.

To connect in land-based (terrestrial) broadcasting mode (Option 1)

1Connect one end of a TV coaxial cable (1) (not supplied) to your antenna outlet (2). Connect the other end to a VHF/UHF RF combiner/transformer (3) (not supplied).

2Connect a coaxial cable feed connector (4) (not supplied) to the VHF/UHF RF combiner/transformer (3).

3Connect one end of another TV coaxial cable (5) to the feed connector (4). Connect the other end to the VHF/UHF input port (6) on the computer.
