Jiuzhou DTP8300
Receiver
for Internet Television
At first sight the DTP8300
from Jiuzhou looks just like
your average set-top box for
satellite, cable or terrestrial
reception. It only measures
230x160x39 mm, which makes
it a neat little addition to
the living room cabinet. The
box comes in stylish black
and sports two LEDs on the
front panel to indicate the
current operating mode. The
manufacturer has chosen to
do without an LCD or segment
display, but has instead opted
for an on/off switch in the left
corner and a USB 2.0 interface
in the right corner.

If you turn around the
receiver and look at the connection
options on the back
panel it becomes perfectly
clear that this is a set-top box
that does not receive signals
from satellite, cable or terrestrial
antenna.
All we find is an RJ45 Ethernet
port when it comes
to signal input. In addition,

IPTV receiver equipped with top-notch
technology
there is of course the usual
range of sockets for HDMI
out, three RCA jacks for
YUV, three more RCA jacks
for stereo audio and CVBS,
an optical S/PDIF output,
S-video socket and a second
USB interface. There is
even the added benefit of a
mechanical power switch,
which is a valuable feature in
this time and age.
