Help Guide (Web manual)

The following system environment is required to use the network function of the receiver via a wired LAN
connection.
Router
Use a router compatible with transmission speeds of 100 Mbps or greater.
We recommend that you use a router equipped with a built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
server because the default setting on the receiver is DHCP.
This function automatically assigns IP addresses to devices on the LAN.
LAN cable
We recommend using a normal shielded type cable for a wired LAN to avoid electric noise.
Some flat-type LAN cables are easily affected by noise.
We recommend using a Category 7 cable.
[42] Preparation
5. Connecting to the network
Connecting the receiver to the network using LAN cables (for
STR-ZA3100ES)
The following illustration is an example configuration of a home network with the receiver, and a computer.
Computer
LAN cable (not supplied)
Wireless access point, etc.
Network camera, etc.
Router
Modem
Internet
Note
Connect a router to one among ports 1 to 8 of the receiver using only one LAN cable. Do not connect the same router to
the receiver using more than one LAN cable. It may cause a malfunction.
Ports No. 1 and No. 2 support PoE (Power over Ethernet, Alternative A). If you connect a PoE-compatible device to one
of these ports, power will be supplied to the device from the receiver.
