Features
Bluetooth A-BUS Module: The BTA-2 is a wall-mounted local input Bluetooth module for the
purpose of streaming audio from sources such as smartphones, tablets and computers, etc.
with Bluetooth capability, to a Russound A-BUS distribution hub (sold separately).

Bluetooth 4.0 w/ aptX: The Russound BT-A2 incorporates Bluetooth 4.0 with support for
wireless audio streaming (A2DP) and wireless audio control (AVRCP). In addition to
supporting the standard Bluetooth codec (SBC), the BTA-2 also supports aptX audio
encoding for a higher quality audio signal whenever an aptX-enabled Bluetooth device
(many Android and Mac computers) is utilized as the music source. The Russound BTA-2 a
wireless Bluetooth range of up to 50' (depending on surround environment and conditions).

Whenever a Bluetooth signal is received, the BTA-2 will automatically switch the active
audio source to the Bluetooth device, making it simple and easy to use. This local
connection will remain until pairing is disconnected or the Bluetooth device is out of
range for longer than 3 minutes.
The audio output level from Bluetooth enabled devices can vary from brand to brand. The
BTA-2 has been adjusted to be equal to the output of most Bluetooth devices; in some
cases the level may be higher. Most devices have their own adjustable volume level and
it is recommended that this is used to adjust the output level to match the main audio
source's volume level.
RJ-45 Connectivity: The BTA-2 is connected to the CAT-5/CAT-6 cable line (no longer than
150') between the Russound A-BUS hub and the Russound A-BUS keypad using RJ-45 connectors.
It also can be wired in series with other local input modules along the CAT-5/CAT-6 cable.
The local input module closest to the room's Russound A-BUS amplified module, will be the
master.

Note: The BTA-2 is connected from its output socket to any A-BUS hub with an input or
Expansion Input. It can also be inserted in a main source CAT-5 cable between input module
and hub, overriding the main source when paired.
Room Identification: The BTA-2 is identified by an individual code number beginning with
the prefix AB (ABxxx). The identification code can be replaced with individual room name
identification (eg. Bedroom, Study, Patio, etc,) prior to installation. Visit Russound's
website to download the renaming software onto a Windows PC and connect the BTA-2 with the
included miniUSB-to-USB cable supplied and follow the on-screen prompts. For installations
where more than one BTA-2 is desired, this same Windows software application can be used to
custom name each Bluetooth module.

Note: When pairing for the first time, a security code is required. The default code is 1234.
The four digit number can be changed or switched off in the room naming software. Individual
room naming and discrete security pairing code, must be changed with the renaming software
prior to installation.

Mounting Options: The Russound BTA-2 installs easily in a 1-gang box and will also require a decor plate.
