1.6. Cables and Connectors
1.6.1. A/V (Audio/Video) Cables
The A/V cables provide the audio and video signals to your ste-
reo and TV. The LaCinema Rugged HD supports the A/V standards
shown below:
1.
Composite video/stereo audio – This is the most standard
video connection (yellow) as well as left (white) and right (red)
stereo audio inputs. If your TV only has a SCART connector,
you can purchase an adapter from your local retailer that will
allow you to connect the composite video/stereo audio plugs
to the SCART connection.
2.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) – This is the best
audio/video method for connecting the LaCinema Rugged to
HDTVs.
1.6.2. USB Cable
USB is a serial input/output technology for connecting peripheral
devices to a computer or to each other. Hi-Speed USB 2.0 is the
latest implementation of this standard, and it provides the necessary
bandwidth and data transfer rates to support high speed devices
such as hard drives, CD/DVD drives and digital cameras.
Included USB Cable
Your LaCinema Rugged HD is shipped with a Hi-Speed USB 2.0
cable, to ensure maximum data transfer performance when con-
nected to a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port. The cable will also work when
connected to a USB port, but drive performance will be limited to
USB 1.1 transfer rates.
TECHNICAL NOTE:
To achieve Hi-Speed USB 2.0 data transfer
rates you need to be connected to a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 host inter-
face. Otherwise, transfer rates will be limited to USB 1.1 speeds.
