The CX Matrix supports various AV signal sources.
AV Connector—standard AV Input RCA)Connector:
Type: Audio connectors are in pairs (left/right channels) (white/red) and video connector
(yellow)
CX matrix RCA jack connection, see Figure 6-2 below:

Generally, the RCA audio terminals are indicated in pairs by different colors: the right audio
channel uses red color (or use the letter “R” to indicate “Right”); the left audio channel is usually
black or white. Generally speaking, the RCA stereo cable is one cable to contain both left and
right audio channels.
Advantages: The AV connector realizes separate transmission of audio and video frequencies,
thereby averting decline of graphics quality due to audio/video interference. Presently, almost
every TV set provides this connector for video input.
Connection method: Use the 4-hole RCA Jack (commonly referred to as the sprayer head
which measures 14x18mm) for connection to input/output equipment. Connect the video, audio
RCA connectors of the signal source equipment output terminal to the same RCA connector of
the CX matrix input. Then, connect the RCA connectors of the CX matrix output, via a dedicated
RCA signal cable, to the RCA input jack of the output equipment.
NOTE: Correctly connect the two ends of the signal cable to the RCA connector, or else
discoloration happens or even no signal output.
Audio Connecting Cable:
The “Audio Input” and “Audio Output”jacks of the CX matrix can be used to connect a video
recorder and a multiplexer respectively.
The audio cable branches into left and right audio channels. The red RCA represents the right
audio channel and the white RCA represents the left audio channel.
