Q-SYS Core 8 Flex Network & Analog I/O Processor
The Core 8 Flex audio, video and control (AV&C) processor extends the applications of the Q-SYS Platform into a wider range of smaller-scale installations across corporate, higher education, healthcare and beyond. Built on the same foundational technologies and driven by the same Q-SYS OS as the rest of the Q-SYS processor portfolio, including the best-in-class Q-SYS Core 110f, Core 8 Flex is designed for applications with lower network or analog channel capacity and/or targeted processing requirements.
- 64 x 64 networked audio channels (Q-LAN / AES67)
- 8x on-board Flex channels and GPIO
- 8x AEC processors
- up to 32 x 32 Dante audio channels (8 x 8 included)
- USB AV bridging (8 x 8 audio + Q-SYS camera support)
- Full-featured Q-SYS Control engine (with optional feature license)
- External USB audio device host
- Up to 2x VoIP instances
- 1U half-width, includes mounting hardware
Network plus on-board I/O
In addition to its 64 x 64 network I/O capacity, the Core 8 Flex offers eight on-board Flex channels and eight GPIO on-ramps to integrate analog audio and control devices into the Q-SYS Ecosystem. Ideal for in-room processing with both analog & networked endpoints.
Rightsized. Uncompromised.
Rather than deploying an AV&C processor with unused analog I/O that occupies a full rack space, Core 8 Flex offers a smaller solution with several mounting options. However, its smaller form factor does not compromise on functionality; instead Core 8 Flex delivers a full featured control engine for third-party device control, full paging and BGM capabilities, automation, monitoring and beyond.
