UPnP
— This abbreviation stands for Universal Plug and Play, which is based on a number of standardised
network protocols and is designed to provide cross-vendor control of devices (stereos, printers, routers,
household systems) via IP-based networks. The NOXON is a UPnP device capable of receiving files from a
suitable application.
WEP encryption
— WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) describes a type of encryption for WLANs. Naturally,
NOXON can also receive and interpret WEP-encrypted data.
WPA encryption
— Like WEP, WPA is an encryption and authentication standard. WPA was developed to
eliminate the fundamental weaknesses of WEP encryption. WPA can thus be seen as the secure successor
to WEP.
Wi-Fi
— A certificate for WLAN products that comply with IEEE802.11 standards and are compatible with
other products. The NOXON also fulfils the technical standards of the Wi-Fi consortium.
WLAN
— Also Wireless LAN or Wireless Local Area Network. The NOXON connects to your network via
WLAN. It receives data via the local wireless network, processes them and plays it in the form of audio files.
