From what I can make out, you have a Sky box and then this HK box which gets programming via net.
The sky box will be connected via the dish and then an HDMI from the box to the TV so HDMI 1.


For the HK box, just plug the Ethernet cable into the port.
Then connect the box to your TV with an HDMI cable which would then be HDMI 2.
I'm guessing the USB port is maybe for power to the box if it doesn't have a separate power connector.

Use your AV button on your TV remote to flick between both inputs when watching.
