Wiring a Zone for LyncTouch and Source Inputs
Most whole-house audio systems require all of your components to be located in one centralized area. Lync
is different! You can choose to listen to audio sources located not only in the central area, but also sources
located throughout your home. To make the most of this feature you will need to run Cat cable from the
central location to every location where you plan to install a LyncTouch. You will also want to run Cat cable
from that LyncTouch to a convenient location within each zone where you wish to add a source input (one
per LyncTouch).
The passive Standard Input
Panel (SIP) must be connected
to a LyncTouch. The Analog Input
Panel (AIP), Bluetooth Input Panel
(BIP), or Digital Input Panel (DIP)
can connect to a LyncTouch or
alternatively directly to the central
Lync controller.

When wiring your system, run a Cat cable behind the wall from the LyncTouch to a convenient source input location.
Note: when connecting a TV’s digital audio output into a DIP, be sure the TV’s audio output is set to stereo or PCM stereo.
