 Glossary 
  
 
  10BaseT/100BaseTX: These are Ethernet standard, which operated at 10Mbps/100Mpbs (megabits per 
 
  second). Also known as simply Ethernet. 
 
  802.11: Standard specifying the characteristics for wireless local area networks. 
 
  Access Point: An internetworking device that seamlessly connects wired and wires networks together. 
 
  Ad Hoc: One of two types of wireless networking, usually used for smaller networks. PCs communicate 
 
  directly with each other without an access point. 
 
  Album: An album of music released by an artist, or a group of images stored in a folder on a hard drive. 
 
  BMP: A Microsoft

 standard for storing bitmapped images. 
 
  AUDIO OUT jacks: Jacks on the rear of the Digital Media Player that send audio to another equipment ( 
 
  TV, stereo receiver, etc.). 
 
  Color system: There are various systems for transmitting television signals, for example PAL, SECAM, 
 
  and NTSC. NTSC is the most common color system in the United States of America. 
 
  Component Video YPbPr jacks: The Video Out jacks on the rear of the Digital Media Player that send 
 
  high-quality video to a TV that has Component Video In jacks. The jacks on the Digital Media Player are 
 
  red, blue, and green. 
 
  Cable Modem: A class of modem that is used for connecting to a cable TV network, which offers 
 
 Internet service. 
 
  Category 5: A type of cabling used by Ethernet networks. Category 5 cable is rated for 100Mbps. 
 
  Crossover Cable: Most network cables are straight-through cables. A crossover cable has the send and 
 
  receive connections swapped, which is useful when connecting two network devices together without a hub 
 
  , router, or switch. 
 
  DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Some music files have security built in so they cannot be 
 
 copied. 
 
  DSL Modem: A class of modem used for connecting a digital subscriber line. 
 
  Digital: Sound that has been converted into numerical values. Digital sound is available when you use the 
 
  Digital Media Player’s SPDIF COAXIAL and SPDIF OPTICAL jacks, which sends audio through multiple 
 
  channels instead of two channels as analog does. 
 
  Dolby® Digital: A surround sound system that provides 5.1 channel sound as used in movie theaters. 
 
  Ethernet: A popular network technology for connecting PCs and other devices. Also called 10BaseT/ 
 
 100BaseTX. 
 
  Folder: Another name for a subdirectory on a PC. A folder contains other files, such as music or images. 
 
  Genre: A type of music, such as rock, country, or classical. There are many music genres. 
 
  GIF: Graphical Interchange Format. A popular format for storing images. 
 
  Hub: A device that interconnects PC and network devices, sometimes amplifying the signals between them. 
 
  Icon: A small graphical picture. 
 
  ID3 Tag: A tagging system that allows the storage of music information such as artist, song title, and album 
 
  title within the music file. 
 
  Infrastructure: One of two types of modes used for wireless networking. PCs and devices communicate 
 
  through a common access point. Access points transmit data to PCs equipped with wireless network 
 
  adapters, which can roam within a certain range of the access point. 
 
  IP Address: Internet Protocol address, sometimes referred to as a network address. This is a series of 
 
  twelve numbers that uniquely identifies a client on the network. For example, 192.168.0.1. 
 
  Jack: A jack is a socket for attaching the cables. 
 
  JPEG: JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group. However, what people usually mean when they 
 
  use the “JPEG” is the image compression standard they developed. JPEG was developed to compress still 
 
  images, such as photographs, a single video frame, something scanned into the PC, and so forth. You can 
 
  run JPEG at any speed that the application requires. For a still picture database, the algorithm doesn’t have 
 
  to be very fast. If you run JPEG fast enough, you can compress motion video-which means that JPEG 
 
  would have to run at 50 or 60 fields per second. This is called motion JPEG or M-JPEG. You might want to 
 
  do this if you were designing a video editing system. Now, M-JPEG running at 60 fields per second is not 
 
  as efficient as MPEG 2 running at 60 fields per second because MPEG was designed to take advantage of 
 
  certain aspects of motion video. 
 
  LAN: Local Area Network. A small network that typically spans a single building or campus.
