Chapter 2: Connecting your TV<br />
Connecting an HDMI or DVI device<br />
to the HDMI input<br />
The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and<br />
uncompressed digital video from an HDMI source device, or<br />
uncompressed digital video from a DVI (Digital Visual<br />
Interface) source device.<br />
This input is designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth<br />
Digital-Content Protection) program material in digital form<br />
from EIA/CEA-861-D–compliant [1] consumer electronic<br />
devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or<br />
DVI output).<br />
The HDMI input can accept and display VGA, 480i (60Hz),<br />
480p (60Hz), 720p (60Hz), 1080i (60Hz), and 1080p (24Hz/<br />
60Hz) signal formats. For detailed signal specifications, see<br />
page 61.<br />
Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate 32/44.1/<br />
48 kHz<br />
Note: To connect a PC to the HDMI input, see page 19.<br />
To connect an HDMI device, you will need:<br />
• one HDMI cable (type A connector) per HDMI device<br />
– For proper operation, it is recommended that you use an<br />
HDMI cable with the HDMI Logo ( ).<br />
– To display an 1080p/60Hz signal format, you will need a<br />
Category 2 cable. Conventional HDMI/DVI cable may not<br />
work properly.<br />
– HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate<br />
analog audio cables are not required (see illustration).<br />
– See “Setting the HDMI audio mode” (- page 32).<br />

To connect a DVI device, you will need:<br />
• one HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable (HDMI type A connector)<br />
per DVI device<br />
– For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVI<br />
adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The<br />
recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).<br />
• one pair of standard analog audio cables per DVI device<br />
– An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers video only.<br />
Separate analog audio cables are required (see<br />
illustration).<br />

[1] EIA/CEA-861-D compliance covers the transmission of<br />
uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content<br />
protection, which is being standardized for reception of highdefinition<br />
video signals. Because this is an evolving technology, it<br />
is possible that some devices may not operate properly with the TV.<br />
