Connections – Set up the Basic Components
This section provides basic instructions on how to connect your FibreOP TV components. Although a FibreOP technician installs your
service, you may use this information if you have unplugged the components or add new components such as a DVD player or home
entertainment system. If you need to move your FibreOP TV service from one room to another, call 1 866 FibreOP to have a FibreOP
technician visit your home.
The diagrams in this section show typical setup scenarios for FibreOP TV
components. When connecting other components to your system, refer to the
user guides for each component that you plan to connect. Connect one device
at a time. If many components are being connected, make sure each connection
is correct before proceeding with the next connection.
In-Home Wiring
Your FibreOP TV installer wires your home for FibreOP TV using either Ethernet
or coaxial cable. If your home is wired with Ethernet cable, the FibreOP modem
is connected to the NETWORK port on the set top box (receiver), as shown in
the diagrams on the opposite page. If the installer uses existing coaxial cable,
the FibreOP TV signal is delivered through a coaxial cable connected to the TO
WALL port on the set top box.
Connection Options
Depending on the type of your home entertainment system, your components
are connected using different combinations of audio and video cables.
In the diagrams on the opposite page, RCA cables are shown. For optimum
performance of FibreOP TV, choose the best connection type supported by your
television and A/V components.
For more information on how to reconnect or add components,
go to fibreop.ca
Ensure the receiver is clearly visible from where you watch TV.
Always point the remote at the receiver.
HD CONNECTIONS For HD service, you must connect the set top box to your
TV using an HDMI cable or component for video and RCA for audio.
