LG 47LX6500

CalibrationNext: Page 9
Remote ControlConnectivity
Lots of connectivity options. Some ports may be a tight fit.
Connectivity (0.00)
Input Ports (8.0)
The LG 47LX6500 has a number of ports, located in the back and the left side of the TV. Notable ports include: 4 HDMIs, 3 components, LAN, and 2 USB ports, making is a great TV for high-end users and lots of HD and multimedia inputs.
All the ports are well-labeled and easily accessible, thanks to the swivel base. Well, at least they’re easy to see. Because of the incredibly thin frame, the ports that face out on the side can be tough to squeeze into. In fact, the component video port requires an adapter (included).
Output Ports (3.0)
The LG 47LX6500 has three output ports, a digital analog out, a headphone out (functions as an analog audio out, as well), and a Wireless Controller.
Other Connections (7.0)
The LG 47LX6500 includes a LAN ethernet port on the back, and is WiFi-ready, using either of the USB ports and a separately purchased dongle.
Media (2.0)
The LG 47LX6500 has two USB ports, both located on the left side. They can read USB thumb drives for music, photos, and video clips.

Placement (8.00)
Due to the thin facade of the LG 47LX6500, the ports on the side can be a tight squeeze. If you have a fat HDMI cable or USB thumb drive, it might not fit.
