Select a location
You can place Port just about anywhere—in an electronics rack, on a shelf, or on a credenza with your
audio/video receiver (AVR).
Rack mounted
Port fits perfectly in any electronics rack using a third-party shelf. You can fit 3 units across a standard rack
and take up only 1 rack unit of vertical space.
Placed on a credenza
Place horizontally on a stable and level surface.
If you put it on a shelf, for best performance place it at the front and leave at least 2" space all
around.
Connect the cables
Connect the power cord
Attach the power cord and plug in your Port.
If you're connecting to powered speakers
You may need a Y-adapter audio cable (one 1/8" stereo miniplug to dual RCA male connectors) to connect
powered speakers to the audio outputs on the Sonos product. If your speakers have a male 1/8" stereo plug,
you'll need to attach a female-to-female coupler between the speaker plug and the Y-adapter audio cable.
If you don't have the Sonos app, download it from the app store on your mobile device. You'll use it to set up
and control your Sonos system.
If you're connecting to an audio/video receiver (AVR) or amplifier
If you have digital inputs on your AVR or amplifier, you can use a digital coaxial cable to connect
Port's digital output to the digital input on the receiver.
If you have analog inputs on your AVR or amplifier, use a standard RCA audio cable to connect Port's
analog audio output to the audio inputs on the receiver.
Select the proper input channel on the receiver. See Control volume from your AVR or amplifier to
adjust volume settings.
If you don't have the app, download it from the app store on your mobile device. You'll use it to set up and
control your Sonos system.
If you're connecting to a computer
You'll need a stereo mini to RCA Y-adapter audio cable (one 1/8" stereo miniplug to dual RCA male connectors)
to connect from Port's analog audio output to your computer's audio input.
Use only the included power supply (using a third-
party power supply will void your warranty).
Use a standard RCA audio cable (included) to
connect Port's analog audio inputs to the audio
outputs from a separate audio component, like a
pre-amplified turntable.
Use a standard RCA audio cable (included) to
connect Port's analog audio outputs to the audio
inputs on your amplified audio component.
Use a digital coaxial cable to connect Port's coaxial
digital audio output to the audio inputs on your
amplified audio component.
