Connecting a satellite receiver or other digital
set-top box

Satellite and cable receivers, and terrestrial digital TV tuners
are all examples of so-called ‘set-top boxes’.

• If the set-top box or video component also has an HDMI

or a component video output, you can connect this too.
See Connecting using HDMI on page 14 or Using the
component video jacks
on page 16 for more on this.

that is connected to this receiver using a coaxial cable,
