Extender System

CONGRATULATIONS!
Thank you for choosing the iWARE®ES2 Extender System from Niles Audio Corporation.
With proper installation and operation, you should enjoy years of trouble free use.
The ES2 Extender System consists of a pair of wall plates that allow an iPod to be placed up to
100 meters away from an IntelliControl®ICS, or Niles ZR-6 MultiZone Receiver. The input
plate has a 30-pin connector for the iPod (must use Niles to iPod cable supplied with
your Niles System) and a connection for the power supply. The output plate has a 30-pin
connector for connecting to a Niles System. Both plates have two CAT-5 connectors on
the back that carry audio, data and other signals between them that allow you to listen
to and control your iPod.
Niles manufactures the industry’s most complete line of custom installation components
and accessories for audio/video systems. To see the complete Niles product assortment,

USING YOUR ES2 EXTENDER SYSTEM
The iWARE®ES2 Extender System allows you to locate your iPod up to 100 meters
from your IntelliControl®ICS system, or a Niles ZR-6 MultiZone Receiver. Prior to
performing any work you must determine where both the system and iPod will be
located. Between those two points, two lengths of CAT-5 unshielded twisted pair
cable must be installed. These two cables may be any length up to 100 meters
(but must be the same length) and must be terminated using the EIA/TIA T568A
standard.
The input wall plate is different from the output wall plate in that it has an extra
connection for the power supply. The input plate and the power supply are to be
installed at the iPod end of the system. Install the input and output wall plates taking
great care to match the two CAT-5 cable connections at each end. (The two RJ45 jacks
are labeled “A” and “B”; Connect the cables A-to-A, and B-to-B.) Connect the power
supply to the input wall plate. Optionally, the input wall plate may be powered remotely
via the two conductor connector on the back side of the input wall plate (requires
12VDC at 250 mA minimum for power). Connect the output wall plate to the Niles
system and the input wall plate to the iPod with the appropriate cable. As an option,
you can use the iWARE SmartDock®2 (sold separately) to hold the iPod and add
additional functionality. Please see the manual of that device for operation instructions.
Note: CAT-5 cables must be same length and terminated using the EIA/TIA
T568A standard.
