Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing this wireless Bang & Olufsen®compatible Powerlink
radio transmission system. This installation guide will help you to properly
integrate the unit into your audio system. With years of expertise, we want to
bring the benefits of the latest technology into your living room.
WirelessPowerlink
The WirelessPowerlink System was specifically developed for your Bang &
Olufsen®system and provides signal transmission from the system to the
speakers, wherever a wired connection is not possible or simply too expensive.
The TV Station on your Bang & Olufsen® TV for example, and the receivers of
the rear speakers are constantly connected via radio - this means you can enjoy
wireless surround sound in absolute CD-quality.
The automatic frequency change to the maximum transmission reliability, results
in an insignificant latency between the wired and wireless connected speakers -
which creates a slight hall effect. In case there is no signal available at the
transmitter - because the system is turned off or the sound is muted - the
speakers will also go into standby mode - just like it would with a cable
connection.

Safety Instructions
To ensure best performance, please read these instructions carefully. Keep
them in a safe place for future reference.
Install the equipment in a well-ventilated, cool, dry, clean environment - away
from direct sunlight, heat sources, vibration, dust, moisture and/or cold.
Place the unit away from other electrical devices, motors, or transformers to
avoid humming sounds.
Do not expose the equipment to sudden temperature changes from cold to hot,
and do not place it in places with high humidity (e.g. in a room with a humidifier) to
prevent the formation of condensation inside the devices, which could cause
electric shock, fire, damage to the devices and/or accidents with injuries.
Do not place the devices in locations where any solid objects could fall into the
device or liquid splashes may be spilled on/into the device. Do NOT place the
following items on the device:
- Other components, as they can cause damage and/or discoloration to the
surface of the devices.
- Burning objects (such as candles), as they may cause fire, damage to the
device and/or injuries.
- Containers with liquid, as they can tip over and liquid can enter the devices,
which can cause electrical shock or damage to the device.
Do not cover the devices with newspaper, tablecloth, curtains, etc., in order to
prevent heat accumulation. If the temperature inside the devices rises rapidly,
this may result in fires, damage to the devices and/or injuries.
Do not operate the devices in a tilted position. This can lead to overheating and
damage the device.
Do not apply force in the operation of buttons and/or cables. Always grasp the
plug, if you disconnect the power cord and/or the adapter from the wall outlet.
Never pull the cord.
Do not try to clean this device with chemical solvents because they may
damage the housing. Clean only with a clean, dry cloth.

General 4

device with a higher voltage than specified, is dangerous and can cause fire,
damage to the device and /or injuries.
ip media systems GmbH is not responsible for any damage resulting from the
operation of the device with a voltage other than specified.
Do not attempt to modify or repair these devices yourself. Please contact
your specialty retailer if service is required. The housing may not be opened
under any circumstances.
If the devices are not going to be used for long periods of time (e.g. vacation),

Installation 7
Assembly Instructions / Placement
The logo on the side of the receiver and the transmitter should always be visible,
to achieve the best possible transmission quality. Also make sure that the devices
are not placed in the immediate vicinity of antenna cables - this can cause static
noise.
CORRECT:
Lying flat on
the side with
the type plate
- the side with
the logo is
visible
CORRECT:
Lying on the
narrow side
If the device is going to be attached to the wall with tape (e.g. Velcro), the side
with the logo must also be visible.
In no case should the device be placed as illustrated below.
WRONG:
Lying flat on
the side with
the logo
facing down
In this case the metal blank faces upwards and thus partially shields the antenna,
which can lead to loss of signal quality.

System Description 8
Compatibility with Bang & Olufsen ®Devices
The WirelessPowelink System is compatible with ALL active Bang &
Olufsen®speakers other than BeoLab 5®.
WirelessPowerlink in the Surround-System
Here, the front speakers remain connected to your system via wires. Wherever a
wired connection to the rear speakers is not possible or simply too expensive, you
can expand your wired stereo system to a full surround system with Wireless
Powerlink.

Note: The automatic frequency change to the maximum transmission reliability results in
an insignificant latency between the wired and wireless connected speakers - which
creates a slight hall effect. You can easily adjust this in the configuration mode of the
Dolby Surround menu. To do this, increase the distance of the wireless connected
speakers for about 6 m.

System Description 9
WirelessPowerlink in Stereo Mode
Wherever a wired connection to the rear speakers is not possible or simply too
expensive, you can extend your wired stereo system to a full surround system with
WirelessPowerlink. And if you have an outdoor party, you can simply place the
speakers on the patio and connect them to an outlet - the music will accompany you
outside.
WirelessPowerlink for your Sub-Woofer
With WirelessPowerlink as an extension you can also expand your wired stereo system
with a sub-woofer such as the BeoLab 2® very easily and thus increase your listening
enjoyment.
