Answer | The SBR-AC1200P includes a 2.0 USB connection for adding an external drive for file sharing or storage. Â The USB port supports DLNA 1.5, Digital Media Server, and SAMBA for NAS Drive support. Â In addition to supporting both 2.0 and 3.0 USB hard drives the USB port can be used as a charging connection for mobile devices up to 500mA at 5v.
NOTE: The USBÂ port does NOT support Internet connection and portable USB 3.0 devices. Â When NAS Samba Service is enabled, the contents of the attached USB storage device will be accessible to the local area network (LAN) client with read-write permissions (public-access). Â
The DLNA Media Server feature when enabled, allows the media contents of the USB storage device to be accessible to any local area (LAN) client using a DLNA-certified player, such as game console, smart TV, and media player. Â Â
