The NS-IPD-100 connects to a DigiLinX system and becomes an integral part of the multi-room audio system.
It charges the iPod battery and provides control of iPod playback from the DigiLinX system.
The sleek NS-IPD-100 is the DigiLinX interface to Apple
®
iPod media players. Once an iPod is placed in the
NS-IPD-100, the music library on the iPod can be quickly and easy be searched by genre, playlist, album, artist
or individual song title from any location in the home with a DigiLinX controller, including in-wall touchscreens
or wireless remotes.
The NS-IPD-100 can be placed anywhere convenient such as a counter, desktop or shelf. The dock connects
exclusively to a NetStreams AP500 or EIM2RCA within a DigiLinX multi-room AV system with an audio
connection directly to a SpeakerLinX SL251 or TouchLinX TLA250 local input port and is controlled via the
DigiLinX Ethernet network.
The NS-IPD-100 is perfect for those who wish to enjoy their iPod music library on their DigiLinX multi-room AV
system.
