CONNECTING A DEVICE - AUDIO & VIDEO CABLE TYPES

AV CABLE

AV cables (or Composite cables) are the traditional way of connecting your devices to your TV. Video signals are sent over the yellow connector while audio is sent over the red and white connectors.

COAXIAL CABLE

Coaxial cables are the traditional way of connecting antennas and cable television signals to your TV. Coaxial cables carry both audio and video signals through a single connector.

COMPONENT CABLE

Component cables are designed to carry high definition video signals along with additional audio connections. Colors are delivered with color information split up three different ways over three connectors for video (separated into Red, Blue and Green signals) and the left and right audio connectors (Red and White).

HDMI CABLE

HDMI is the intelligent, all-digital interface that delivers both dazzling quality and unmatched ease of use. HDMI technology transmits crystal-clear digital video along with multi-channel surround audio. HDMI-connected devices have the ability to automatically adjust themselves for optimal viewing.
