Your UStec system is ready to handle all kinds of technologies. This section
shows a couple of interesting technologies that can be easily integrated into
your system. This section assumes you have Ethernet capability which is stan-
dard in any iLAN or iSAT system, and is optional in tecLAN or tecSAT systems.
IP cameras
Imagine being able to see your who’s at your front door from work, or check
on the baby-sitter or see who’s using your pool when you are half way around
the world. It can be done with an IP based network camera and a broadband

Ethernet. With an IntelliWAY server or the TP-IPR8 router, you can make these
cameras visible on the Internet. Please refer to each products corresponding

could put more than ten thousand songs on your Intelliway hard drive.
To connect an MP3 player there are three connections. The first is a power
cable to plug into any outlet. The second is RCA or optical outputs for you’re
