Setting Up a New Sonos System

Step 1: Connect one Sonos component to your router

Note: Which Sonos component should I connect to my broadband router?
If you want to listen to music in this room:
- Connect a ZonePlayer 120 with your choice of speakers
- Connect a ZonePlayer 90 with an external amplifier or powered speakers
- Connect a ZonePlayer S5 (which has built-in speakers)
If you don't plan to listen to music in this room, you can connect a Sonos
ZoneBridge to your router instead.
Connect an Ethernet cable (supplied) from any of the Ethernet switch connectors on
the back of a ZonePlayer or ZoneBridge to an open port on your router. Do not
connect the Sonos component directly to your cable or DSL modem unless your
modem has a built-in router.
• The first Sonos component you install must connect to your home network us-
ing an Ethernet cable. If you only have a wireless network, you can go to
http://faq.sonos.com/wireless for assistance.
• If you have structured (built-in) wiring that connects to a router located else-
where in your home, you can connect from a live wall plate to any of the Ether-
net switch connectors on the back of a Sonos component.
