8. Accessories – Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting of the product should

follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

9. A product and cart combination should be moved

with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the product and cart combination to overturn.

10. Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

11. Power Sources – This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

12. Grounding or Polarization – This product may be equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will ﬁt into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to ﬁt, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

13. Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

15. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure A.

16. Lightning – For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

17. Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

18. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of ﬁre or electric shock.

19. Object and Liquid Entry – Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a ﬁre or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.

20. Ser vicing – Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualiﬁed service personnel.

21. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualiﬁed service personnel under the following conditions:

a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product, c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water, d) If the product does not operate normally by following the operating

instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualiﬁed technician to

restore the product to its normal operation, e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way, and f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance – this

indicates a need for service.

22. Replacement Parts – When replacement parts are required, be sure the

service technician has used replacement parts speciﬁed by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in ﬁre, electric shock, or other hazards.

23. Safety Check – Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product,

ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

24. Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The product should be mounted to a wall or

ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

25. Heat – The product should be situated away from heat sources such as

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including ampliﬁers) that produce heat.

Cautions on Handling

• Before turning the power switch on

Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are

no problems with the connection cables.

•

Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is set to the standby mode. When traveling or leaving home for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

• About condensation

If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of

the unit and the surroundings, condensation (dew) may form on the operating parts inside the unit, causing the unit not to operate properly.

If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power

turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature before using the unit.

• Cautions on using mobile phones

Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If so, move

the mobile phone away from this unit when it is in use.

• Moving the unit

Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power

outlet.

Next, disconnect the connection cables to other system units before

moving the unit.

•

Note that the illustrations in these instructions may differ from the actual unit for explanation purposes.

NOTE

By default, the AVR-4308CI’s “Amp Assign” setting is set to “ZONE2”, so sound is not output simply by connecting a speaker to the surround back terminal. To use as the surround back speaker for the main zone, either turn the ZONE2 power off or change the “Amp Assign” setting (vpage 73, 74).

Page 13

Connecting the Speaker Cables

Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and – (black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the AVR-4308CI, and be sure to interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.

Peel off about 0.03 ft/10 mm of sheathing

from the tip of the speaker cable, then either twist the core wire tightly or terminate it.

Turn the speaker terminal

counterclockwise to loosen it.

Insert the speaker cable’s core wire to

the hilt into the speaker terminal.

Turn the speaker terminal clockwise to

tighten it.

When using a banana plug

Tighten the speaker terminal ﬁrmly before inserting the banana plug.

Protection circuit

If speakers with an impedance lower than speciﬁed (for example 4 Ω/ohms speakers) are used for an extended period of time with the volume turned up high, the temperature may rise, activating the protection circuit. When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is shut off and the power indicator ﬂashes red. If this happens, unplug the power cord, then check the speaker cable and input cable connections. If the set is extremely hot, wait for it to cool off and improve ventilation around it. Once this is done, plug the power cord back in and turn the set's power back on. If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems in the ventilation around the set nor in the connections, the set may be damaged. Turn the power off, then contact a DENON service center.

Getting Started Connections Setup Playback Remote Control Multi-Zone Information Troubleshooting Speciﬁcations

Connections

NOTE

• Use speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms. When using surround A and B speakers simultaneously, use speakers with an impedance of 8 to 16 Ω/ohms.

• Connect the speaker cables in such a way that they do not stick out of the speaker terminals. The protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch each other (v “Protection circuit”).

• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.

In order to play the digital video and audio signals of a DVDVideo or DVD-Audio disc using HDMI/DVI connections, both the connected DVD player and monitor must be equipped for a copyright protection system called “HDCP” (Highbandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP is a copy protection technology consisting of data encoding and mutual identiﬁcation of the devices. The AVR-4308CI is HDCP-compatible. For details on the DVD player or monitor you are using, refer to its operating instructions.

Discs

(examples)

CD, DVD-Video, DVD-Audio

DVD-Audio

SACD

HD DVD, Blu-ray Disc

NOTE

• Use a CPPM-compatible DVD player to play DVD-Audio discs that are copyright-protected by CPPM.

• The AVR-4308CI cannot be controlled from another device via the HDMI cable.

• The audio signals output from the HDMI connector (sampling frequency, bit rate, etc.) may be restricted by the connected device.

• Video signals are not output properly when using devices that are not HDCP-compatible.

• Video signals are not output if the input video signals do not match the monitor’s resolution. In this case, switch the DVD player’s resolution to a resolution with which the monitor is compatible.

• If the GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “HDMI Setup” – “Audio” setting (vpage 30) is set to “Amp”, the sound may be interrupted when the monitor’s power is turned off.

• Use a cable on which the HDMI logo is indicated (a certiﬁed HDMI product) for connection to the HDMI connector. Normal playback may not be possible when using a cable other than one on which the HDMI logo is indicated (a non-HDMI-certiﬁed product).

• If the monitor or DVD player does not support deep color, deep color signal transfer is not possible.

• If the monitor or DVD player does not support xvYCC, xvYCC signal transfer is not possible.

• If the monitor does not support “Auto Lipsync Correction” function, this function will not work.

• When the AVR-4308CI and DVD player are connected using an HDMI cable, also connect the AVR-4308CI and monitor using an HDMI cable.

• If the connected monitor or DVD player only has a DVI-D connector, use an HDMI/DVI converter cable. When using a DVI cable, no audio signals are transmitted.

• Use a Deep Color compatible cable for connection to Deep Color compatible devices.

When connecting with an HDMI/DVI converter cable (adapter)

• HDMI video signals are theoretically compatible with the DVI format. When connecting to a monitor, etc., equipped with a DVI-D connector, connection is possible using an

HDMI/DVI converter cable, but depending on the combination of components in some cases the video signals will not be output.

• When connecting using an HDMI/DVI converter adapter, the video signals may not be output properly due to poor connections with the connected cable, etc.

• By default, the HDMI audio signals are output from the speakers connected to the AVR-4308CI.

• To output the sound from the TV, make the settings at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “HDMI Setup”

– “Audio” – “TV” (vpage 30).

Required system n Broadband Internet connection

A broadband line connection to the Internet is required in order to use the AVR-4308CI’s Internet radio function and ﬁrmware update.

n Modem

This is a device that is connected to the broadband line to communicate with the Internet. Some are integrated with the router.

n Router

• When using the AVR-4308CI, we recommend you use a router equipped with the following functions:

· Built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Conﬁguration Protocol) server This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN.

· Built-in 100 BASE-TX switch When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching

hub with a speed of 100 Mbps or greater.

• When using with a wireless LAN, prepare a broadband router with built-in access point.

n Ethernet cable (CAT-5 or greater recommended)

Use for wired LAN.

• The AVR-4308CI does not come with an Ethernet cable.

• Some ﬂat type Ethernet cables are easily affected by noise.

We recommend using a normal type cable.

• If the sound is broken in an environment in which there is much power supply noise from electric products or in a noisy network environment, use a shielded type Ethernet cable.

n Computer

A computer with the following speciﬁcations is required to use a music server:

• OS

Windows® XP Service Pack2, Windows Vista

• Software (Prepare one of the following.)

· .NET Framework 1.1 and Windows Media Connect (Windows XP)

· Windows Media Player ver.11

· DLNA-compatible server software

• Internet browser

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 or later

• LAN port

• 300 MB or more free disk space

b Free disk space is required to store music and video ﬁles. The

following sizes are approximate.

Format Bit rate Per minute Per hour

MP3 / WMA

MPEG-4 AAC

WAV (LPCM)

FLAC

392 kbps Approx. 3 MB Approx. 180 MB 1400 kbps Approx. 10 MB Approx. 600 MB 1080 kbps Approx. 7.7 MB Approx. 464 MB

For connections to the Internet, contact an ISP (Internet Service Provider) or a computer shop.

NOTE

• A contract with an ISP is required to connect to the Internet. No additional contract is needed if you already have a broadband

connection to the Internet.

• The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact an ISP or a computer shop for details.

• Depending on the server, video ﬁles may be displayed, but they cannot be played on the AVR-4308CI.

n Others

• If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on which network

settings are made manually, make the settings at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “Network Setup” (vpage 32 ~ 35).

• With the AVR-4308CI, it is possible to use the DHCP and Auto IP

functions to make the network settings automatically.

• When using a broadband router (DHCP function), the AVR-4308CI

sets the IP address, etc., automatically.

When using the AVR-4308CI connected to a network with no

DHCP function, make the settings for the IP address, etc., at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “Network Setup” (vpage 32 ~ 35).

• The AVR-4308CI is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE-compatible

router is required if you have a contract for a line of the type with which the PPPoE is set.

• Depending on the ISP with which you have your contract, it may

be necessary to make proxy server settings to use the Internet radio function. If you made proxy server settings on the computer to connect to the Internet, make the proxy server settings on the AVR-4308CI in the same way.

The items selectable at “Conﬁg.” differ according to the “Amp Assign” settings.

STEP1 : Speaker Detection

The speaker connection and polarity are detected at the ﬁrst measurement position. The following attributes are also determined at this time: “Speaker Size”, “Speaker Distance”, “Channel Level”, “Crossover Frequency”. Once the measurements are completed, the results are displayed.

NOTE

• Loud test tone may be played during Audyssey MultEQ XT Automatic Speaker Setup. This is part of normal operation. If there is background noise in room, these test tones will increase in volume.

• Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. This will cause inaccurate readings.

• Quiet the listening environment before beginning measurements and refrain from talking. Turn off air conditioning units or other devices that emit noise if at all possible as measurements may be affected by these sounds.

• Operating the MASTER VOLUME knob on the main unit or the VOL +/– buttons on the remote control unit during the measurements will cancel the measurements.

• Do not change the speaker connections or subwoofer volume after “STEP1”.

STEP2: Measurement

After completing a measurement position, move the microphone to the next position.

Measure at least 6 positions (main listening position and at least 5 other surrounding positions). For best results it is recommend measuring 6

or more positions (with a maximum of 8 positions).

STEP3: Calculation

When “Calculate” is selected at “STEP2”, the measurements taken are analyzed automatically to determine how the speaker system interacts with the room.

The time required for this analysis depends on the number of speakers connected. The higher the number of speakers, the longer the time required for analysis.

STEP4: Check

Once the auto setup procedure is complete, a measuring result check screen appears. Select any item whose results you want to check to review the results.

Values that are different from the actual distance may be set for speakers with built-in ﬁlters (subwoofers, etc.). This is because ﬁlters add electrical delay to the signal that should be compensated.

STEP5: Store

The auto setup measurement results are stored in the AVR-4308CI.

NOTE

Do not turn the power off while the settings are being stored.

• If you are using a broadband router (DHCP function), there is no need to make the settings at “Setting the IP Address” and “Setting the Proxy”, since the DHCP function is set to “ON” in the AVR-4308CI’s default settings.

• If the AVR-4308CI is being used connected to a network without the DHCP function, the network settings must be made. In this case, some knowledge of networks is required. For details, consult a network administrator.

• If you cannot connect to the Internet, recheck the connections and settings (vpage 20).

• If you do not understand about Internet connection, contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider) or the store from which you purchased your computer.

• DHCP (Dynamic Host Conﬁguration Protocol) :

These are systems by which the IP address and other network

settings are automatically set for the AVR-4308CI, computer, broadband router and network devices.

• DNS (Domain Name System) :

This is a system for converting the domain names used when

About the RESTORER function

• Such compressed audio formats as MP3, WMA (Windows Media Audio) and MPEG-4 AAC reduce the amount of data by eliminating signal components that are hard for the human ear to hear. The RESTORER function generates the signals eliminated upon compression, restoring the sound to conditions near those of the original sound before compression. It also corrects the sense of volume of the bass to obtain richer sound with compressed audio

signals.

• This is displayed on the GUI menu and can be set when the input source is set to “XM”, “HD Radio” or “NET/USB”, or when analog signals (including AM/FM signals) or PCM signals (fs = 44.1/48 kHz) are input.

Amp Assign / Multi Zone Connections and Operations

The AVR-4308CI is compatible with the following types of playback:

• Multi-zone playback (ZONE2 & ZONE3)

• Bi-amp playback (front speaker)

• Bi-wiring playback (front speaker)

NOTE

• For bi-amp and bi-wiring playback, use speakers compatible with that type of connection.

• When conducting bi-amp or bi-wiring playback, remove the shortcircuiting boards (or wires) from the speaker terminals.

Multi-Zone Settings with the Amp Assign Function

The amp assign function lets you assign the ampliﬁers for the different channels built into the AVR-4308CI to the speaker outputs for the different zones. Select the desired playback environment from among “Setting 1” to “Setting 6”, then set the corresponding “Amp Assign” mode at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “Option Setup” – “Amp Assign” (vpage 37). Connect the speakers as described at “Speaker connections”.

With “Setting 4” to “Setting 6”, it is possible to switch the Amp Assign mode between the 7.1-channel mode and the multizone mode without changing the speaker connections.

About Speaker Installation

Surround back speakers

Number of surround back speakers

We recommend using 2 speakers. When using dipolar speakers in particular, be sure to use 2 speakers.

Placement of the surround left and right channels when using surround back speakers

We recommend installing the speakers for the surround “L” and “R” channels a bit forward.

w Setting for primarily watching movies using diffusion type

speakers for the surround speakers

For the greatest sense of surround sound envelopment, diffuse radiation speakers such as bipolar types, or dipolar types, provide a wider dispersion than is possible to obtain from a direct radiating speaker (monopolar). Place these speakers at either side of the prime listening position, mounted above ear level.

Path of the surround sound from the speakers to the listening position

Sound positioning directly to the rear can be achieved easily by adding a surround back speaker to a 5.1-channel system. In addition, the acoustic image extending between the sides and the rear is narrowed, thus greatly improving the expression of the surround signals for sounds moving from the sides to the back and from the front to the point directly behind the listening position.

Surround

The AVR-4308CI is equipped with a digital signal processing circuit that lets you play program sources in the surround mode to achieve the same sense of presence as in a movie theater.

Dolby Surround

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a multichannel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories. A total of 5.1-channels are played: 3 front channels (“FL” , “FR” and “C”), 2 surround channels (“SL” and “SR”) and the “LFE” channel for low frequencies. Because of this, there is no crosstalk between channels and a realistic sound ﬁeld with a “three-dimensional” feeling (sense of distance, movement and positioning) is achieved. A real, overpowering sense of presence is achieved when playing movie sources in AV rooms as well.

Dolby Digital Plus

Dolby Digital Plus is an improved Dolby Digital signal format that is compatible with up to 7.1-channels of discrete digital sound and also improves sound quality thanks to extra data bit rate performance. It is upwardly compatible with conventional Dolby Digital, so it offers greater ﬂexibility in response to the source signal and the conditions of the playback equipment.

Dolby TrueHD

Dolby TrueHD is a high deﬁnition audio technology developed by Dolby Laboratories, using lossless coding technology to faithfully reproduce the sound of the studio master. This format is compatible with a maximum sampling frequency of 96 kHz and up to 7.1-channels, so it is used for applications particularly prioritizing sound quality.

Dolby Pro Logic g

Dolby Pro Logic g is a matrix decoding technology developed by Dolby Laboratories. Regular music such as that on CDs is encoded into 5-channels to achieve an excellent surround effect. The surround channel signals are converted into stereo and full band signals (with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater) to create a “three-dimensional” sound image offering a rich sense of presence for all stereo sources.

Dolby Pro Logic gx

Dolby Pro Logic gx is a further improved version of the Dolby Pro Logic g matrix decoding technology.

Audio signals recorded in 2-channels are decoded to achieve a natural sound with up to 7.1-channels. There are 3 modes: “Music” suited for playing music, “Cinema” suited for playing movies, and “Game” which is optimized for playing games.

Dolby Digital EX

Dolby Digital EX is a 6.1-channel surround format proposed by Dolby Laboratories that allows users to enjoy in their homes the “DOLBY DIGITAL SURROUND EX” audio format jointly developed by Dolby Laboratories and Lucas Films. The 6.1 channels of sound, including surround back channels, provide improved sound positioning and expression of space.

Advanced AL24 Processing Multi channel

Equipped with “Advanced AL24 Processing” time axis region information volume expansion

In addition to the existing “AL24 Processing Plus” bit expansion technology, DENON has also developed “Advanced AL24 Processing” that dramatically improves information volume in the time axis region using high-speed signal detection and processing technology. In addition to expanding original 16-bit digital data to 24 bits, “Advanced AL24 Processing” uses data interpolation along the time axis or upconverted sampling to achieve natural interpolation without losing the original data. A digital ﬁlter is used to further expand adaptability and perform optimum ﬁltering calculations for ringing-free pulse response, pulsive music data and attack sounds. This results in the reproduction of such spatial information as the delicate nuances in the music, the positions of the performers, and the breadth, height, and depth of the concert hall. “Advanced AL24 Processing” is conducted for all channels and modes other than DSD DIRECT.

HDMI (High-Deﬁnition Multimedia Interface)

HDMI is a digital interface standard for next generation TVs based on DVI (Digital Visual Interface) standards and optimized for use in consumer equipment. Non-compressed digital video and multi-channel audio signals are transmitted with a single connection. HDMI is also compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection), a technology for protecting copyrights that encrypts digital video signals in the same was as with DVI.

Deep Color

Eliminates on-screen color banding, for smooth tonal transitions and subtle gradations between colors. Enables increased contrast ratio. Can represent many times more shades of gray between black and white. At 30-bit pixel depth, a four times improvement would be the minimum, and the typical improvement would be eight times or more.

xvYCC

Next-generation “xvYCC” color space supports 1.8 times as many colors as existing HDTV signals. Lets HDTVs display colors more accurately. Enables displays with natural, vivid colors.

Lip Sync

Because consumer electronics devices are using increasingly complex digital signal processing to enhance the clarity and detail of the content, synchronization of video and audio in user devices has become a greater challenge and could potentially require complex enduser adjustments. HDMI 1.3 incorporates an automatic video/audio synching capability that allows devices to perform this synchronization automatically with total accuracy.

IEEE 802.11g

This is another wireless LAN standard set by the 802 working group that establishes LAN technology standards at the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) of the United States, and is compatible with IEEE 802.11b. It also uses the 2.4 GHz band, but enables communications at a maximum speed of 54 Mbps.

The value indicated above is the maximum theoretical value for the wireless LAN standard, and does not indicate the actual data transfer rate.

Infrastructure Communications

“Infrastructure Communications” refers to networks using wireless LAN access points. This function can be used to connect to the Internet or a wired LAN via a wireless LAN access point. Wireless LAN access points include wireless broadband routers.

Ad-hoc Communications

Signal transfer through wireless interconnection of computers is referred to as “ad hoc communications”. With such ad hoc communications there is no connection to the Internet. Ad hoc communications are suited for establishing simple temporary networks.

About Wireless LAN

Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi Certiﬁcation assures tested and proven interoperability by the Wi-Fi Alliance, a group certifying interoperability among wireless LAN devices.

IEEE 802.11b

This is one wireless LAN standard set by the 802 working group that establishes LAN technology standards at the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) of the United States. It uses the

2.4 GHz band usable freely without a radio frequency license (ISM band), enabling communications at a maximum speed of 11 Mbps.

The value indicated above is the maximum theoretical value for the wireless LAN standard, and does not indicate the actual data transfer rate.

Network Names (SSID: Security Set Identiﬁer)

When forming wireless LAN networks, groups are formed to prevent interference, data theft, etc. This grouping is done by “SSID” or “Security Set Identiﬁers”. For further security, a WEP key is set and signal transfer is not possible unless the SSID and WEP key match.

WEP Key (Network Key)

This is key information used for encrypting data when conducting data transfer. On the AVR-4308CI, the same WEP key is used for data encryption and decryption, so the same WEP key must be set on both devices in order for communications to be established between them.



Page 88

Getting Started Connections Setup Playback Remote Control Multi-Zone Information Troubleshooting Speciﬁcations

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)

This is a security standard established by the Wi-Fi Alliance. In addition to the conventional SSID (network name) and WEP key (network key), it also uses a user identiﬁcation function and encrypting protocol for stronger security.

WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2)

This is a new version of the WPA established by the Wi-Fi Alliance, compatible with more secure AES encryption.

WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK (Pre-shared Key)

This is a simple authentication system for mutual authentication when a preset character string matches on the wireless LAN access point and client.

Passphrase

This refers to the code key used for WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK authentication, a WPA authentication method.

TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)

This is a network key used for WPA. The encryption algorithm is RC4, the same as for WEP, but the security level is increased by changing the network key used for encryption for each packet.

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)

Information

This is a next generation standard encryption method replacing the current DES and 3DES, and because of its high security it is expected to be applied widely to wireless LANs in the future. It uses the “Rijndael” algorithm developed by two Belgian cryptographers to divide the data into blocks of ﬁxed lengths and encrypt each block. It supports data lengths of 128, 192 and 256 bits and key lengths of 128, 192 and 256 bits as well, offering extremely high encryption security.
