Fusion Apollo RA770 Installation Instructions

In the image above, a Apollo
RA770 stereo
À
connects to a
wireless router
Á
and to two
Apollo SRX400 zone stereos
Â
.
You can connect a FUSION PartyBus zone stereo to a single
speaker zone
Ã
. You can connect a FUSION PartyBus stereo to
multiple speaker zones
Ä
to cover a larger area.
FUSION PartyBus devices connected to the network can stream
media from and control media playback on other devices on the
network, but cannot control the volume of other devices on the
network. You can adjust the volume of speakers or speaker
zones connected to the stereo only.
Wired Networking Considerations
When you are planning your network installation, observe the
following considerations for all wired connections.
• Wired connections are more reliable than wireless
connections. When planning your network, you should use
network cables to connect FUSION PartyBus devices to the
network when possible.
• You must connect devices using standard Cat5e or Cat6
network cables with RJ45 connectors.
• You can use one network cable to directly connect two
compatible devices.
• You may need to use wired network switches and wired or
wireless network routers when you connect more than two
compatible stereos to a network.
• If you install a router on the network, it should be configured
to be the DHCP server by default. See your router
instructions for more information.
• If you do not install a router on the network, you must
configure one FUSION PartyBus device to be the DHCP
server.
Wired Network Example for Direct Connections
You must configure one FUSION PartyBus device as a DCHP
server when connecting two devices together directly.

Wireless Networking Considerations
When you are planning your network, observe the following
considerations for all wireless connections.
• Wired connections are more reliable than wireless
connections. You should plan your network to use network
cables, but if it is not possible, FUSION PartyBus devices are
Wi‑Fi
®
compatible. You can connect them to wireless routers
or access points.
• You can configure a FUSION PartyBus device as a wireless
access point, so you can connect devices within wireless
range.
• If you install a wireless router on the network, it should be
configured to be the DHCP server by default. See your
wireless router instructions for more information.
• If you do not install a router or wireless router on the network,
you must configure one FUSION PartyBus device to be the
DHCP server.
• You can configure any FUSION PartyBus device on the wired
network to be a wireless access point, even if you install a
wireless router or additional wireless access points on the
network. This would be useful to allow access to devices in
range of the stereo but not in range of the other wireless
access points.
• If you connect a FUSION PartyBus device to the network
wirelessly, you cannot connect any additional wired FUSION
PartyBus devices to that device.
• You can connect a smartphone to the wireless network to
control any stereo on the network using the FUSION-Link
™
app.
