Feature | Description / Benefit |
Instant wireless setup | The ZoneBridge makes it easier to get started with Sonos. Just connect a ZoneBridge to your router using a standard Ethernet cable. Then, a simple button press will start SonosNet™, a secure AES encrypted, peer-to-peer wireless mesh network that enables other Sonos products to control and play music wirelessly. |
System flexibility | ZoneBridge provides flexibility to place your ZonePlayers in any room of the house and connect them all wirelessly. |
Automatic set up | Install a new ZoneBridge with one button-press. Note: The ZoneBridge requires software version 2.5 or higher. |
Easy Internet connectivity for other products in the house | SonosNet can stream any data in between its nodes. A ZoneBridge has two Ethernet jacks on the back to bring standard Internet connectivity to your set-top box, PVR, PC, Game Console or NAS drive. |
Extend the range of the Sonos system | Stream music wirelessly to a remote location by placing a ZoneBridge in between a ZonePlayer in a remote location and the rest of the Sonos system. |
Expand the wireless reach of the Controller | Improve Controller access to SonosNet by placing a ZoneBridge in areas where wireless coverage needs a boost. Ideal for retrofits, where all ZonePlayers might be in one location instead of being placed throughout the home. |
Automatic access to new features and music services | Once the Sonos system has been registered, Sonos will automatically notify you when software updates are available. Simply press one button to update your system. |
