The KVH Set-top Box allows you to view IP-
MobileCast content on a TV. It includes an IR 
remote control, allowing you to change channels 
and view different entertainment content stored 
on the Media Server. 

Each TV you want to connect 

to the Media Server requires its own Set-top Box.

 

Selecting a Location

Follow these installation guidelines:
• Select a dry, well-ventilated area away from 

any heat sources or salt spray. Set-top Box 

temperature must not exceed 45°C (113°F).

• Do not place anything on top of the Set-top 

Box, and provide at least 8" (20 cm) of free 
space above it to ensure proper cooling.

• Position the Set-top Box close to the front 

edge of a flat mounting surface within view 

of the user to maximize reception of the 

remote control's IR signals. Do not block the 

IR receiver (see Figure 2).

• Place the Set-top Box within 10 ft (3 m) of the 

TV to use the supplied HDMI cable.

• Do not place the Set-top Box in an 

environment where flammable gases, vapors, 

or dusts are present.

Figure 1:  KVH Set-top Box

These instructions assume a KVH Media 
Server has been installed on the vessel. The 
Media Server streams content to the Set-top 
Box.

IMPORTANT!

The Set-top Box generates significant heat. Do 
not stack anything on top of it or too close to it.
