Is it necessary for the telephone socket to be near to the TV set? I want to get Cytavision and I already have i-choice. However, my computer is situated in the bedroom whereas the TV set in the living room. What do I have to do with the wiring of all these services?

Ιt is not necessary to have a telephone socket near to your TV set. Cyta undertakes to install the required equipment as well as to make the wirings needed, with no extra cost, even if these involve wiring from one room to another, according to the customer’s guidance. The quality of the picture and the sound on the main TV set will be superior than the rest TV sets in the house, provided that the main TV set is connected to the mini-Din output of the STB (Amino Set-Top-Box).


If you wish to install Pirelli STB notice that Pirelli STB does not provide RF output. If your internal television network is connected through RF cabling and you wish to remain that way you can get RF modulators from specialized stores (View Set-Top Box Connection Instructions)
The quality of Video and audio signals of the Primary TV will be better than all the rest TV sets, if the Primary tv will be connected in the HDMI / Scart / S-video or RCA output of the STB.

How the TV set is connected to the Set Top Box (STB)?

The Amino STB is connected to the TV set using a ‘mini-Din’ on scart or on S-Video or on composite cable or on a RF cable, depending on the TV receptions.

Pirelli STB can be connected with your TV Set in four (4) differed ways: Scart-Scart/ RCA-RCA/ S-VIDEO & RCA / HDMI-HDMI cables depending on your TV inputs. (Watch the analytical description in the Set-Top Box Connection Instructions). Pirelli STB does not provide RF output. If your internal television network is connected through RF cabling and you wish to remain that way you can get RF modulators from specialized stores. Furthermore if you have DVD Players / Recorders or Video recorders that provide RF out you can use it to continue your RF cabling, otherwise you may leave you TV network as it is and not change STB.
