ADSL
Abbreviation of Asymmetric Digital
Subscriber Line. ADSL is one
kind of broadband line. It relies
on the conventional copper wires
of telephone lines but supports
transmission of large amounts of
data by using the high-frequency
bandwidth separate from audio
signals. The upstream rate of
communication (for data sent from
the user’s terminal) is slower than
the downstream rate (sent from
the provider to the user’s terminal),
hence the description “asymmetric”.
Transmission speeds vary depending
on the contracted service.
AOSS
AOSS is an abbreviation of
“AirStation One-Touch Secure
System”. AOSS is a technology
developed by BUFFALO that
simplifies connections and settings
for wireless network.
ATRAC
Audio compression technology
developed by Sony which realizes
high sound quality with a high
compression rate.
Bit rate
The bit rate is a measure of data
volume expressed in bits per second
(bps).
Broadband
General name for communication
lines that use a broad frequency
bandwidth for sending and receiving
large amounts of video or audio
data at high speed. Currently, ADSL,
CATV, FTTH and other systems are
identified as broadband.
Glossary
Broadband router
For Internet connections through
ADSL or a cable TV line, devices
called ADSL modems or cable
modems are used. However, for
Internet access from multiple
terminals connected at once, a
broadband router is used.
Byte
One of the fundamental units
used to express digitized data
in computers. Digitized data is
commonly expressed in binary digits
(zeros and ones). A single unit of
data is one bit. One byte consists of
eight bits.
CD TEXT
CD TEXT refers to an audio CD
with text information, including disc
name, artist names and track names.
Condensation
Condensation occurs inside the unit
during where there is a quick rise
in temperature, as when a heater is
turned on. If condensation occurs,
keep the unit turned off until the
moisture evaporates.
DHCP
Abbreviation of Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol. A system
for automatically allocating
configuration data required for an
Internet connection.
DLNA
Abbreviation of Digital Living
Network Alliance. The DLNA
is a nonprofit organization that
establishes design guidelines for
digital content shared over networks.

DMPORT
DMPORT (DIGITAL MEDIA
PORT) allows the connection of a
DIGITAL MEDIA PORT adapter
which lets you directly connect and
listen to compatible digital music
players.
DNS
Abbreviation of Domain Name
System. A server that translates
domain names to IP addresses, or IP
addresses to domain names. A DNS
is identified by an IP address. Also
called a “DNS server”.
DSEE
Abbreviation for Digital Sound
Enhancement Engine. This
technology developed by Sony
restores the high-register sound that
was cut from audio data during MP3
or ATRAC compression to realize
sound quality close to that of the
original CD.
Ethernet
A method of networking computers
in a Local Area Network (LAN).
Developed by Xerox Corporation,
Ethernet has become a very popular
means of creating LANs.
Hard Disk
A high-volume, digitally encoded
storage device used in computers
and other digital devices. By
combining a magnetic disk and drive
mechanism into an integrated unit,
hard disks are capable of very fast
data writing and reading and boast
superb data search capabilities.
ID3
ID3 is information (such as the
track name or artist name) that is
recorded in an MP3 file. The ID3 tag
is used by this unit to display track
information for MP3 files.
