S-Bracket (Optional)
S-Bracket is a bracket which provides 2 SPDIF jacks for digital audio
transmission and 2 analog Line-Out connectors for additional 4-channel ana-
log audio output. With the S-Bracket, your system will be able to perform 6-
channel audio operation for wonderful surround sound effect, or connect to
Sony & Philips Digital Interface (SPDIF) speakers for audio transmission with
better quality.
The S-Bracket offers two types of SPDIF connectors: one for optical
fiber and the other for coaxial connection. Select the appropriate one to meet
your own need. For more information on S-Bracket, refer to Appendix A: Using
4- or 6-Channel Audio Function.
