As with all monitors designed by Samsung, all connectors are mainly located at the rear of the unit.

The bottom front offers the controls, which include the menu, auto adjustment, FM radio, source, PIP and magic bright. You read that correctly, there is a FM radio included.

There is a large power button on the front that is in the middle of a channel and volume adjustment circle. This channel up/down is used if you plan to use the 930mp to capture channels off the air.
