DIRECTV HD Receiver Rear Panel

1) SATELLITE IN – Use to connect the DIRECTV HD Receiver to the satellite dish antenna.
2) USB – For future services and accessories. Additional hardware may be required.
3) S-VIDEO OUT – Provides the best non-HD picture quality, better than VIDEO RCA-type jacks. If your TV has only RCA and S-Video jacks, use it along with the audio jacks (S-Video only carries picture information, not sound) to connect to your TV.
4) VIDEO OUT – Provides good, but non-HD, picture quality. You can connect the second RCA type composite VIDEO jack to another device, such as a VCR. You must also connect the AUDIO cables when using the VIDEO connection.
5) COMPONENT OUT/ YPbPr (G, B, R) – Provides good HD picture quality, but not as good as HDMI. YPbPr carries only picture information, not sound; use it along with a digital audio connection or Audio Out (L/R white/red) jacks. (Note, some TV sets have component video inputs
that are non-HD. In this case, component video has the best available non-HD picture quality.)
6) AUDIO OUT (R and L) – Connect a second set of audio cables to another component, such as a VCR or stereo.
7) DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (COAX) – Provides digital-quality audio signal.
8) S/PDIF DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) – Provides digital-quality audio signal.
9) HDMI – Provides the best quality HD picture (better than YPbPr/component video). Th e HDMI also provides audio, for a high-quality, “one-cable” solution.
10) ETHERNET– For future use.
11) PHONE LINE– Connects the DIRECTV HD Receiver to a telephone line. Th e DIRECTV HD Receiver requires a land-based telephone line connection to communicate periodically with DIRECTV.
12) POWER – Use to connect the power cord for your DIRECTV HD Receiver. We recommend you use a surge protector to safeguard your DIRECTV HD Receiver from power spikes. Your DIRECTV HD Receiver is rated to operate at 100-240V, with the appropriate power cord.

The H23-600 is essentially a wide H21 with a tuning intern in such a way that it does not need the BBC solution. The HR22 is more probable is than the same idea, although for the HR21. Functional that must be identical, and the H23 is not compatible with the AM21 more that the H21. One of those units, or both things, is possibly probable that support AM21 in the future, but not today, and not especially shortly.
