NOTE
▪ Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo printed on it. A cable with a
maximum length of 5 m (16 ft) is recommended to prevent degradation of signal
quality.
▪ Use a premium high-speed HDMI cable for playback of 3D and 4K video content.
▪ The unit supports HDCP version 2.2, a copy protection technology. For playback
of 4K video, connect the unit to the HDMI input jack (one compatible with HDCP
2.2) on an HDCP 2.2-compliant TV.
▪ When connecting the supplied optical digital audio cable, be sure to remove the
cap and check the plug’s orientation before connecting it.
▪ If the TV has no optical jack, connect the audio output jack on the TV to the
ANALOG input jacks on the unit. For details, see the following:
– “Analog connection with a playback device” (p.23)
