Optional Connections
Connecting the TV is optional and not required to
enjoy Media Center.
Using the TV Cables
Your PC comes with the following cables for the TV
signal:
One coaxial cable (10 feet) (A). Use a
coaxial cable for a BNC connector, such as
the TV source signal.
One S-video to composite video adapter
cable (2 inches) (B). Connect this adapter to
an S-video connector, and then attach a
composite video cable to the adapter.
One composite video cable (6 feet) (C). Use
this cable to connect a composite video
connector on the back of the PC, such as
COMP for the TV out signal, to your TV.
You may need other or additional cables,
depending on your TV and your TV signal source.
For example, when your TV has an S-video
connector, you may want to use an S-video cable
to connect the TV OUT on the PC to your TV. An
S-video cable provides separate color and black
and-white image signals, and delivers a sharper
image than a composite video cable does.
