Guide HDTV Satellite USB Box
With the S650 Taiwanese manufacturer TeVii introduces a further development of its DVB-S USB Box S600, which is now also capable of receiving high-definitions channels (HDTV).
The S650 Box comes in a metal case which gives it a very sturdy look and the level of workmanship is also very high. Its backside features a satellite IF input as well as a loopthrough output. An external power pack – which is also connected to the rear panel – provides the box with all the power it requires.
On one side we find a USB host interface for connecting the box to a Windows or Linux based PC with USB 2.0. In case you’re wondering: yes, it’s true – TeVii also offers a Linux driver for its latest product. An infrared LED is located behind a protective cover on the front panel for picking up commands from the remote control, a feature that worked brilliantly in our
test.
