Specialist can provide this cable, if needed.Each TV Box is connected by coaxial cable to a outlet in a nearby wall, which connects it to the Network+ Box. Inrare cases, TV Boxes can be connected by Ethernet cable, based on factors considered by the InstallationSpecialist at installation time. The TV Box is also connected to your TV.Connecting your TV to the HDMI port on the TV Box ensures the most vivid picture and enhances your viewingenjoyment. If your TV does not support HDMI, you can use an analog break-out cable, which is available from yourInstallation Specialist or you can pick one up at a Google Fiber service center. (You can use an HDMI or an analogconnection, but not both.)Do not connect your TV to the coax port on the TV Box. That type of connection could damage your TV.When the TV Box is properly connected and powered on, the LED on the front lights up solid blue.
Although the connector on the back of the TV Box looks just like a headphone jack, it is an IR extenderport. If you have an IR Extender Cable (Receiver), you can connect it using that port. (This port doesnot support an IR Extender Cable (Sender).) An IR extender uses a cable to extend the IR signal aroundcorners, from behind entertainment centers, or in any situation where line-of-sight between yourdevices and your remote control is not possible.The USB port on the side of the TV Box is not currently supported but might be enabled to supportnew features in a future release.C onn ect ing t o y ou r n et w orkEach TV Box can also serve as a Wi-Fi access point, which extends your wireless network to more areas of yourhome.The TV Box Wi-Fi access points might be enabled or disabled. Check your Wi-Fi settings in My Fiberto determine the status of each TV Box.In addition, if your TV Box is connected to a coaxial wall jack, you can use its Ethernet port to directly wire acomputer or other device to your network.
