Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles Some Channels
If your cable box descrambles only some channels (such as premium channels), follow the
instructions below. You will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four lengths of
coaxial cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)
After you’ve made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing. Set the A/B
switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to “B,” you will
need to tune your TV to the cable box’s output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)
1
Find and disconnect the cable
that is connected to the
ANTENNA IN terminal on your
cable box.
2
Connect this cable to a two-
way splitter. Connect a coaxial
cable between an OUTPUT
terminal on the splitter and the
IN terminal on the cable box.
œ This terminal might be
labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN”,
or simply “IN”.
3
Connect a coaxial cable
between the ANTENNA OUT
terminal on the cable box and
the B-IN terminal on the A/B
switch.
4
Connect another cable
between the other OUT
terminal on the splitter and the
A-IN terminal on the RF (A/B)
switch.
5
Connect the last coaxial cable
between the OUT terminal on
the RF (A/B) switch and the
“ANT IN” terminal on the rear
panel.
