The BGD1 iBridge Dock integrates an iPod into Russound multiroom audio/video systems. Owners of Russound RNET components can choose music by playlist, genre, artist, album or track from keypads and touchscreens. Metadata (such as song title) is viewable on touchscreens. iBridge is compatible with RNET CAV6.6 and CAM6.6 controllers and UNO-S2 and UNO-TS2 user interfaces. The dock also includes an infrared control for Russound’s non-RNET systems (without metadata feedback), including A-BUS, CAA66 and CAS44 controllers.
