Sonos ZoneBridge BR100 Controller makes setting up an all-wireless Sonos system wonderfully fast and easy. Instead of using a ZonePlayer, simply connect the ZoneBridge to your router to instantly activate the SonosNet wireless mesh network. Now all your ZonePlayers and controllers can work wirelessly and be put anywhere in your house. It's the ideal solution if your house doesn't have ethernet wiring or your router is in a room where you don't want music.

Although the ZoneBridge doesn't play music like the ZonePlayer, it's incredibly cost-effective when it comes to extending the range of your Sonos system and expanding the controller's wireless coverage. Plus, it's great for connecting other products to the internet.

Sonos BR100 Key features :

• Instant wireless setup: 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 all other Sonos products to control and play music wirelessly.
• System flexibility: ZoneBridge gives you the flexibility to place your ZonePlayers in any room of the house and connect them all wirelessly.
• Automatic setup: install a new ZoneBridge with one button-press (the ZoneBridge requires software version 2.5 or higher)
• 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.
• Easy Internet connectivity for other products in your house: the ZoneBridge has a two-port ethernet switch to bring standard internet connectivity to your set-top box, DVR, PC, game console or NAS drive
