Recommended settings for rack mounted products

Sonos makes two products that are designed for optional use in a rack mount setup: Amp and Port.

When using either Amp, Port, or a mix of the two in a rack mount, Sonos recommends connecting each product directly to a networking switch and disabling WiFi to conserve power and reduce waste heat.

You can use the dual Ethernet ports to connect multiple Amps or Ports to each other. However, connecting each product directly to a switch is preferred whenever possible.

Do not connect more than four Sonos products via Ethernet to each other in a row or you may experience network instability.
