Sonos ZoneBridge (BR100)
The Sonos ZoneBridge 100 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.
Simple setup of an all-wireless system
Setting up your all-wireless Sonos system has never been easier. Just connect a ZoneBridge to your router to instantly activate SonosNet, our secure wireless mesh network. Now all your ZonePlayers and Controllers can work wirelessly and be placed anywhere in your house.
Extend the range of your Sonos system
The ZoneBridge, like its name suggests, is a wireless bridge that extends the range of the Sonos system. Now you can stream music far across your property, like to a guesthouse or pool, by simply placing a ZoneBridge in between that location and the rest of the system. And with a two-port Ethernet switch, it also brings standard Internet connectivity to your set-top box, DVR, PC, game console, or NAS drive.
