6 Mount the blank panel.

(The blank panel hides the legs of the receiver to

give it a cleaner look. Aligning the height of the

receiver and blank panel lets it fit into a 4U size

space.)

Connections

Connecting a 4K TV that supports HDCP 2.2 and a 4K streaming box

using a 4K-compatible HDMI cable

To enjoy audio from 4K content such as 4K movies, connect the HDMI output/input jacks of

each device that supports HDCP 2.2* using HDMI cables, as illustrated below.

In this section, the STR-ZA3100ES is used for illustrative purposes.

* HDCP 2.2 (Highbandwidth Digital Content Protection System Revision 2.2) is newly enhanced copyright

protection technology that is used to protect content such as 4K movies from Studios.

4K media player 4K TV or 4K projector

Connect the receiver to a 4K media player

using a High Speed HDMI cable (not

supplied).

Connect the receiver to a 4K TV or a 4K

projector using a High Speed HDMI cable

(not supplied).

If you are using an FMP‐X10/X5 Media

Player:

Connect the cable to the HDMI OUT 1 (for AUDIO VIDEO) jack

of the player.

Select [ (Settings)]  [Sound]  [Audio from HDMI OUT]

 [HDMI OUT 1] in the Home menu of the FMP-X10/X5 Media

Player after Initial Setup is complete.

If you are using a different 4K media

player:

Connect the cable to one of the HDCP 2.2-compatible

HDMI output jacks. For details, refer to the operating

instructions supplied with your player.

If you are using a BRAVIA TV with the

series name X950B, X900B or X850B:

Connect the cable to the HDMI IN 1 jack of your TV.

If you are using a different 4K TV or 4K

projector:

Connect to one of the HDCP 2.2-compatible HDMI input

jacks. If the jack is not compatible with the eARC (Enhanced

Audio Return Channel) or ARC (Audio Return Channel)

function, also connect an optical digital cable. For details, refer

to the operating instructions supplied with your 4K TV or 4K

projector.

Note

• Sony recommends that you use an HDMI cable made by Sony or another HDMI-authorized cable. Be

sure to use a High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet. Premium High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet that

supports 18 Gbps is required for 4K/60p 4:4:4, 4:2:2, and 4K/60p 4:2:0 10 bit, etc.

Connections

Making a connection for PoE (Power over Ethernet) (for STR-ZA3100ES only)

The following illustration is an example of configuration of a home network with the receiver

and a computer.

LAN cable

Modem

Wireless access point, etc.

Network camera, etc.

LAN cable

Computer

Router

Internet

Notes

• Connect a router to one of ports 1 to 8 on the receiver using a single LAN cable. Do not connect the

same router to the receiver using more than one LAN cable. Doing so may cause a malfunction.

• Ports No. 1 and No. 2 support PoE (Power over Ethernet, Alternative A). If you connect a PoE-compatible

device to one of these ports, power will be supplied to the device from the receiver.

• You can also connect a device that does not support PoE to the PoE port.

• The PoE port lights in red while supplying power.

• This receiver supports PoE Class 3.

• We recommend using a Category 7 cable.
