by step instructions
Identify a discreet location for placement of the media player. Ideally, it should have limited
access and be near an existing network port to the Internet. A network/phone closet, manager’s
office or other secure location is recommended. Place the media player in a location near the
dedicated power source, the available network port, and where at least 3” of airflow is
available around the unit. The media player may be mounted on its side if necessary.
Confirm availability of a dedicated (non-switched) power source. The media player receives
content and software updates overnight. It should not be powered by a source that is turned off
at any time.
Note that standard broadband Internet access is required. In addition, HTTP, HTTPS and SFTP
ports (80, 443 and 22, respectively) should be enabled.

to the existing network and confirm that www.Marquee11.com

Connect the other end of the Ethernet patch cable to the RJ-45 Ethernet port on the rear of the
media player.
Wireless
- Connect the wireless antenna to the antenna
post on the rear of the media player.
