Fusion PartyBus Networking

The Fusion PartyBus™ networking feature allows you to connect multiple compatible stereos together on a network, using a combination of wired or wireless connections.

NOTE: When you connect a Fusion® stereo to Garmin BlueNet™ network or a Garmin® Marine Network, you are limited to using only Garmin and Fusion devices. You may not be able to use third-party routers, storage devices, or other network products with this stereo directly.
TIP: When the stereo is connected to a Garmin BlueNet network or a Garmin Marine Network, you can connect a mobile device to a wireless access point on a connected Garmin chartplotter and use the Fusion Audio app to control the stereo.

You cannot use Wi‑Fi® networking when a stereo is connected to a Garmin network.

You can group a compatible stereo, such as the Apollo™ RA770 stereo, with other compatible stereos connected to the Fusion PartyBus network. Grouped stereos can share available sources and control media playback on all of the stereos in the group, which allows for a synchronized audio experience across the vessel. You can quickly create, edit, and break up groups as needed from any compatible stereo or remote control on the network.

You can use compatible stereos and remote controls, whether they are grouped or not, to adjust the volume of the available speaker zones for any stereo on the network.

You should refer to the installation instructions provided with your stereo when constructing the Fusion PartyBus network.

You can connect up to eight Fusion PartyBus stereos on a network wirelessly.
