Cable with a Cable Box that Descrambles Some (But Not All) Channels
To complete this connection you will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four coaxial
cables (which you can buy from your Samsung dealer or any electronics store).
1
Find and disconnect the
cable that is connected to 
the ANTENNA IN terminal 
of your Splitter. 
This terminal might be 
labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN”
or simply, “IN”. Connect this 
cable to a two-way splitter.
2
Connect a coaxial cable
between an OUT terminal 
of the splitter and the IN 
terminal of the Cable box.
3
Connect a coaxial cable
between the ANTENNA OUT
terminal of the Cable box
and the B-IN terminal of the
RF (A/B) switch.
4
Connect another cable
between the other OUT 
terminal on the splitter and 
the A–IN terminal on the 
RF (A/B) switch.
5
Connect the last coaxial
cable between the OUT 
terminal of the RF (A/B) 
switch and the ANT 1 IN
(CABLE) on the TV.
After you’ve made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing. 
Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch 
to “B”, you will need to tune your Set-Top Box to the Cable boxs output channel, which is usually
channel 3 or 4.)
