Your server has several ports on the back for connecting your audio, networking, and control
system gear. (Refer to the diagram on the Quick Start Guide included with your server for
connection recommendations.)
HDMI and DVI video ports for connecting to a television or other display
Four (MMS·5A) or one (MMS·2) analog stereo audio outputs
One coaxial (MMS·5A) or Toslink (MMS·2) digital audio connection
One jitter-free audiophile USB audio output (MMS·5A only)
One Ethernet 10/100/1000 Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) port for
broadband media services and control system interface
Multiple USB and eSATA ports for storage expansion (available in a future firmware release)
The MMS front panel has a power button and a power LED. The MMS·5A also has a blue accent
light that can be turned off if desired using a toggle switch on the back panel.
NOTE: It’s important to make all necessary connections to the Mirage Media Server before turning it on for the first time.
Certain aspects of the configuration are automatically set the first time you power on the
device based on the connections that are present. While these can always be changed later, your
installation will go smoother if you make all the connections first.
