Abstract

A computer display capable of receiving wireless signals include a computer display provided with an antenna assembly for receiving wireless digital and analog A/V signals; and a female connector provided in the display for connecting the signals received via the antenna assembly to an external demodulating device, which is connected at a male connector thereof to the female connector in the display. The signals received by the antenna assembly is demodulated and converted by the external demodulating device, and transmitted to a personal computer via a transmission device for operation. The external demodulating device and the antenna assembly have a uniform specification for use with a computer display having the same specification to demodulate wireless signals.
