I- AV & Data Cables Magic. Info (SBB) SBB (Set Back Box) is optional and sold separately, there are various types of SBB according to installation type and connection type. Ø SBB-A, B, C: installed on the back or slide in the monitor (depends on model) with external connection Ø PIM (Plug in Module): installed on the back and have special cable to connect inside the monitor Magic. Info Cable: Specialized cable from Samsung which transfer Video + Audio + Data (Commands) SBB Cable connection: SBB-A, B (DP HDMI); SBB-C (DP DVI) Magic. Info Cable PIM SBB

I- AV & Data Cables RS 232 C RS 232 was first introduced in 1962 by the Radio Sector of the American Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA). RS 232 uses a serial connection, an interface through which information transfers in or out one bit at a time. RS 232 connections have been superseded by USB, but they still offer a simple and cheap method of communicating with devices for control, configuration and diagnostic purposes. The RS 232 C In/Out connection ports can be used to create a data link between the screens. This then allows the screens to be remotely controlled using Samsung’s MDC (Multi Display Control) software.

I- AV & Data Cables Ethernet A data connection can be created using an Ethernet cable to each display screen. Each display screen will be assigned a unique IP address, therefore network switches will be needed for larger installations. RS 232/Ethernet Mix It is possible to create a data loop using a mixture of Ethernet and RS 232 cabling. An Ethernet cable is connected from a DHCP server (commonly a router) to the first screen. The data loop is then continued with RS 232 cables

I- AV & Data Cables USB Name: Universal Serial Bus Signal: Digital Data Power Function: Firmware updates Basic content scheduling External Audio System When using LFDs in a video wall configuration, audio will be played using the internal speakers of the first screen ONLY, unless looped using DP. No audio is passed to the other screens when using a DVI loop-through configuration. To output the audio to an external audio system, a 3. 5 mm stereo audio cable can be connected to the Audio out jack of screen one.

I- AV & Data Cables Digital Rights Management High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection HDCP is a 56 bit industry standard content protection standard developed by INTEL The system is meant to stop encrypted content from being played on unauthorized devices or devices which have been modified to copy HDCP encrypted content. Before sending data, a transmitting device checks that the receiver is authorized to receive it. If so, the transmitter encrypts the data to prevent eavesdropping as it flows to the receiver. HDCP compatible cables include DP, HDMI and some proprietary DVI cables. For HDCP support devices (Blue. Ray, DVD, …); No loop out active Display Port Content Protection DPCP was developed by PHILIPS for use with Display Port technologies and is using a 128 bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Alongside the traditional content protection technologies, DPCP also has the ability to verify the proximity of the receiver and transmitter, a technique intended to ensure users are not bypassing the content protection system to send data out to distant, unauthorized users. For DPCP support devices (Blue. Ray, DVD, …); Loop out for 8 LFDs max.
