FCC Notice
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est
autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout
brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: (1) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. (2) Increase the
separation between the equipment and receiver. (3) Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected. (4) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
IP Series
Install Instructions For:
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain
approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should
be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain
maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à
l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.)
ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
MPE Notice
To satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements, a separation distance of 20 cm or more should be maintained between the antenna of this device
and persons during device operation. To ensure compliance, operations at closer than this distance are not recommended.
Les antennes installées doivent être situées de facon à ce que la population ne puisse y être exposée à une distance de moin de 20 cm.
Installer les antennes de facon à ce que le personnel ne puisse approcher à 20 cm ou moins de la position centrale de l’ antenne. La FCC
des États-Unis stipule que cet appareil doit être en tout temps éloigné d’au moins 20 cm des personnes pendant son functionnement.
IC Notice
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est
autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout
brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
For Module only:
Information for the OEMs and Integrators- This device is intended for OEM integrators only. Please see the full Grant of Equipment document
for restrictions. This device must be operated and used with a locally approved access point.
Label Information to the End User by the OEM or Integrator- If the FCC ID of this module is not visible when it is installed inside another
device, the the outside of the dvice into which the module is installed must be labeled with “Contains FCC ID: SU3RM2400A” in a visible area.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including ampliers) that
produce heat.
9. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where
they exit from the apparatus.
10. Only use attachments/accessories specied by SoundTube.
11. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
12. Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus
has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
13. This apparatus shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
14. When permanently connected, on all-pole mains switch with a contact separation of at least 3mm in each pole shall be
incorporated in the electrical installation of the building.
15. If rack mounting, provide adequate ventilation. Equipment may be located above or below this apparatus but some equipment (like large power ampliers) may cause an unacceptable amount of hum or may generate too much heat and degrade the
performance of this apparatus.
16. This apparatus may be installed in an industry standard equipment rack. Use screws through all mounting holes to provide
the best support.
WARNING -- TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPARATUS TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.

Overview
The STNet-Switch is an intelligent audio grade 16 port, proprietary 40w PoE, CobraNet®-network Switch. The STNet-Switch allows
users to connect up to 16 SoundTube IP speakers via Cat-5 and power them using the internal 40w PoE. Expansion beyond 16
speakers can be done one of three ways; with additional STNet-Switches, using a PoE+ switch or using a non-powered switch with
local power. The Switch has 2 non-powered gigabit ports for high speed expansion and a WAN port for external communication.
The Switch has a built in DHCP server for IP assignment which it uses to identify each end point on the CobraNet network. It
constantly monitors the health of the SoundTube network and speakers and reports if it detects faults. The switch has visual fault
indicators on the front panel and 2 contact closure ports on the rear for external audible and visual fault alarms. It also has the ability
to send an email, either at user preferred intervals indicating the system is operating normally, or immediately upon detection of a
fault. The system monitors PoE power, endpoints on the network, and 3 variables on the speakers: the voice coil, operating
temperature and the amplier.
