AV Connector—standard AV Input （S-Video/RCA）Connector:
Type: Audio connectors are in pairs (left/right channels) (white/red) and video connector
(S-Video)
SX matrix RCA and S-Video connection, see Figure 5-2 below:
Figure 5-2 RCA and S-Video Connection
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 RCA-type socket for connection. Connect the video S-Video and
audio RCA (R/L) connectors of the output terminal of the signal source equipment respectively
to the same SX matrix input channel and connect the SX output via dedicated video S-Video and
audio RCA (R/L) signal lines to the video S-Video and audio RCA (R/L) input connectors of the
output equipment.
NOTE: The RCA (R/L) connectors at both ends of the signal lines must correspond to each
other, otherwise signals on the R/L audio channels would be reversed.
Audio Connecting Cable:
The “Audio Input” and “Audio Output”jacks of the SX 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.
