1.0 Setup/Installation

1.1 Network Requirements

A live Internet connection is necessary for complete setup, operation, and music enjoyment of a Nuo Player Portfolio
System. Once the system is set up and running, an Internet connection is not necessary for listening to music streaming
from a network source. For wired Ethernet connectivity a minimum 100mb wired network is necessary for proper com-
munication. This should not be a problem. Today's network routers are designed to operate in the Gigabyte range. If this is
not the case, you should update the installation's network equipment before you proceed with the setup. The Nuvo Player
Portfolio System uses dual band 802.11n wireless communication for robust operation. To ensure that all components
are compatible and communicating correctly, it is strongly suggested network routers using the older 802.11g protocol
be upgraded.

1.2 Connecting the Gateway to the Network (If using a Nuvo NV-GW100-xx Gateway)

The NVGW100-xx Gateway is the wireless communication point for the Nuvo Player Portfolio System's wireless capable
components. It requires a standard Ethernet Cat5 or 6 (four twisted pair) wire connection to the home's network. It should
be a standard EIA/TIA 568A or 568B network termination if you choose to terminate the cable to a specific length, as
shown in Fig. 1, or simply use a pre-terminated "network" cable (a cable is included in the package for this purpose), as
shown in Fig. 2. Note this is a straight-through connection. You should never connect the Gateway using a "crossover"
style cable.
