iBridge Bay

The BGK2 iBridge Bay Kit is a complete solution for

playing media from a Mac desktop or MacBook com-

puter through a Russound RNET® multiroom system.

It provides access to music, playlists and podcasts in

any zone, and allows the viewing of movies, photos

and DVDs in any zone equipped with a video display.

The iBridge Bay is a tabletop device that treats the

iTunes media library as a fully functional RNET Smart

source. Combined with a Mac mini computer, the

iBridge Bay becomes a cost-effective iTunes media

server for the RNET system. From UNO-S2 keypads,

users can access and navigate iTunes playlists. From

UNO-TS2 touchscreens, users can access playlists, or

search media by artist, album, genre, or title.

RNET A/V Decoder

videos, photos or DVDs stored on the computer.

While designed specifi cally for the Mac mini, the

iBridge Bay works with any Mac computer based

on an Intel Core Duo processor running OS X v10.4

or higher.

Along with the iBridge Bay, the kit includes an RNET

A/V Decoder for connecting to the RNET system. The

two components connect to each other with a single

CAT-5e cable.

The kit also includes iBridge Bay Application soft-

ware, patch cables, and a power supply for the RNET

A/V Decoder.

Using an SRC2 remote in an RNET zone equipped

with a video display, users can access the Apple
