NV-NV-MPS4 Music Port Server Back Panel Features
1. USB Ports: Three USB ports allow the Music Port server to see and stream audio content from attached drives. This feature
will be available in a future release.
2. Ethernet: This RJ45 port allows the Music Port Server to connect to the home’s network. This enables the music files on the
home’s network to be shared on the Music Port Server’s hard drive and the streaming of online Pandora, RadioTime™, SIRIUS
and XM Internet radio stations.
3. Passthrough RS232: The NuVo distributed audio systems are capable of being controlled serially by a third party home
automation system. This DB9 input is designed to pass incoming serial commands through to the adjacent RS232 output. This
allows both Client interface control from network computers of the attached NuVo audio system, and third party serial control
of the same NuVo system.
4. NuVo RS232 : This DB9 port connects to the attached NuVo distributed audio system. This allows any computer on the
home’s network to operate the Client interface for control of audio zones, source selection, and access to the music library. It
also works with the adjacent Passthrough RS232 port to send control commands from a third party home automation system
to the attached NuVo audio system.
5. NuVoNet: This RJ45 port connects to the attached NuVo distributed audio system and allows full source metadata display
and control from the NuVo system Control Pads.
6. Audio Outputs: The Music Port Server has four independent stereo RCA audio outputs that allow its audio streaming
content and stored music file audio signal to be sent to any audio distribution system or amplifier.
7. AC Power: A standard detachable IEC power cord supplies power to the NV-NV-MPS4. A switching power supply allows the
Music Port Server to operate world wide at any voltage.
