What the Heck is "S.W. In"?

On my new deck, I have a

all these RCA outputs

-S.W. in
-Front Speaker
-Rear Speaker
-CD-in
-Aux In

My subwoofer (Infinity Basslink) only has 4 input RCAs which says (front speaker and rear speaker), but doesn't the S.W. in stand for sub woofer? Sounds like I need to plug it into my sub, but sub says front/rear.. hmm.. any information would help. Thanks!

S.W. in should be S.W. out. I don't know of any decks having subwoofer inputs. Hook up an RCA cable to the "S.W. in" on your deck and connect it to either the front or rear inputs on your Infinity Basslink. Fire it up and see if it works. It doesn't matter if you plug the RCA into the front or rear cuz it's the same signal.

Yea this is a Panasonic DFX700U, but it's okay.

This deck was sold to me by a friend which turns out he doesn't know much about it either (must be stolen).

The deck is broken and no sound comes out. Yes all wiring is correct and working. I was just sold a broken unit. RRRG!

Thanks anyways guys!
