your digital entertainment center

alternatives

If you use an audio/video receiver, you can connect

the video cable to the de100c's video OUT jack and

to a video IN jack on your receiver. Audio and video

connections from the de100c must enter the receiver

within the same device group (for example, through an

AUX group).

If your TV does not have a composite video IN jack

available for use but another device in your system

(such as a VCR) does, you can connect the de100c to

that device's video IN jack. With this daisy-chained

method, the device the connection passes through must

be powered on when you use the de100c.

The de100c also has S-video and VGA connections.

To use one of these outputs, purchase the appropriate

cable separately.

broadband: Ethernet

If your router or home network requires an Ethernet

connection:

Connect one end of your Ethernet

cable to the de100c's Ethernet port.

Connect the other end to

your router (or to a networked

RJ45 jack in your home).

broadband: Home PNA

If you have a home phoneline network (your home is

networked to your router via telephone wire within

the walls):

Connect one end of the phone

cord (provided) to one of the

de100c's phone jacks.

Connect the other end of the phone

cord to a networked phone jack in

your home.

dial-up

Connect one end of the phone

cord to one of the de100c's

phone jacks.

Connect the other end to a

phone jack in your home.

sharing a phone jack

To share a household phone jack between

your digital entertainment center and a

telephone, either:

plug the phone splitter into your

household phone jack, then connect the

de100c and the phone to the splitter, or

plug your telephone´s cord into the

de100c´s second phone jack.
