Sample Configurations
There are a number of ways in which the Cantata Music Center can connect with a source computer for playback of a digital library. Below are just a few sample configurations.

In this configuration, the host computer is connected directly to the Cantata Music Center over a USB cable. Playback on the source computer can be controlled via the mouse and keyboard, or through any WiFi-based remote control such as an Apple iPad. Note that a secondary input can also be used (in this case, a DVD player) and chosen with the supplied remote control or through the Cantata App with and iPad.
Because a USB cable is limited to a length of 15 feet, a USB cable connection may not be practical even if the source computer is in the same room. To overcome this limitation, the Resolution Audio ¡°Pont Neuf¡± Bridge effectively extends the USB port of the source computer by transmitting USB audio data asynchronously over an Ethernet or wireless connection to the Music Center. It requires no additional software drivers and is compatible with all music playback software and audio formats. Due to the nature of ethernet connections, this approach also affords sonic improvements over a direct USB connection. As with previous configurations, any WiFi-based remote control (such as an Apple iPad running the Apple ¡°Remote¡± app) can control playback on the source computer.

Here, the source computer is in a different room and the Resolution Audio ¡°Pont Neuf¡± is extending the USB connection over a wired ethernet connection through the home network. Likewise, the Cantata Music Center is connected to the home network through an Ethernet cable. All of the convenience and sonic benefits of an asynchronous USB connection are retained over much greater distances.

If a wired (Ethernet) connection isn¡¯t practical, a ¡°wireless bridge¡± can be added to allow the network information to travel wirelessly to the listening room.
