our Cable TV input into your home may be a single (75 ohm) cable or a converter box installation.
In either case, the connection to the TV is very easy.
Just put the threaded end of the cable signal to the TV’s antenna plug and screw it down tightly.
NOTE: The connecting cable for the converter is supplied by the cable TV company.
If your Cable TV signal comes from a single round
cable (75 ohm), then you're ready to connect to the TV.
If you have a cable converter
box, connect the cable TV signal to the cable signal IN(put) plug on the converter.
Connect the cable TV cable to the ANTENNA IN 75
Ω plug on the TV.
If you have a cable converter box, connect the OUT(put) plug from the converter to the ANTENNA IN 75

Push the round end of the adapter (or antenna) onto the ANTENNA IN 75
