Conduct Your Music Using This Cisco Home Network!
Sending music around your home network often gives the impression that you need to have sound systems, speakers and wireless extenders in every room. That can be expensive. Some people are looking for a simpler solution that takes up less space and is easy to carry. A home network system they can move from room to room or even outdoors to the patio, as long as there is a power outlet.
That’s the job of the Linksys By Cisco Conductor, a home network system that is now available! Unlike component sound systems where you have multiple boxes and separate speakers, this home network Conductor is an all-in-one solution. Built in wireless-n networking means no separate wireless extender is required. Speakers and amplifier are included, as is a CD player. The only device you might want to attach to it is a small Linksys By Cisco iPod dock.
But with wireless networking, you don’t actually need your iPod, you have complete access to your music library: it can sit on your computer, an external drive or a network attached server like the Linksys By Cisco Media Hub. Think of it as a 21st century portable sound system on steroids for a networked home.
You can use its seven inch touch screen to control the Conductor, access your music sources, your docked iPod, your music library or any Linksys wireless music system on your network. But if, as you sit in your chair or lie on your bed, you realize you placed your Conductor too far away to reach its touch screen and you don’t feel like getting up, you still have options. You can control the system with the included infrared remote or the optional touch screen WiFi remote.
It’s music to our ears!
