About i.LINK

i.LINK is a trademark name for IEEE1394, a
high-speed interface for digital audio, video
and other data found on personal computers,
digital camcorders, and other kinds of audio
and audio/visual equipment. A single i.LINK
connector can both send and receive data at
the same time, so only one cable is required
to connect components for two-way commu-
nication.

“i.LINK” and the “i.LINK” logo are trademarks of
Sony Corporation.

Creating an i.LINK network

Using i.LINK it is possible to chain up to 17
components together so that the digital audio
and control signals from each component is
available to other components in the network.
With the addition of an i.LINK repeater, it’s
possible to connect up to 63 components.

i.LINK connectors come in 4-pin and 6-pin
configurations. This player uses the 4-pin
connection, but the two types can be mixed
on a network.

This player is compatible with i.LINK Audio
components, such as AV receivers. It may not
work properly if connected to i.LINK MPEG-II
TS equipment (such as a digital satellite
tuner), i.LINK DV equipment (such as a DVD
recorder or DV camcorder), or an i.LINK-
equipped personal computer. Check the oper-
ating instructions supplied with your other
i.LINK components for compatibility informa-
tion.

Connected components should be DTCP
(Digital Transmission Content Protection)
compliant to be able to play DVD-Video, DVD-
Audio and SACD i.LINK audio. If a connected
component is not DTCP compliant, only CD,
MP3, VCD audio will be output.
