• Native network digital audio connectivity solution for Q-SYS
• Four (4) stereo pairs of AES3 digital inputs and four (4) stereo pairs of AES3 digital outputs (8 input and output channels total)
• Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) capable
• Daisy-chain up to four QIO expanders on a single network run (with local daisy-chained DC power)
• Simple drag-and-drop integration and comprehensive management via Q-SYS Designer Software and Q-SYS Reflect Enterprise Manager
• Surface- or rack-mountable (1RU, quarter width)
• Includes surface mounting hardware

• Network digital audio connectivity where you need it
  The QIO-AES8x8 allows you to provide your Q-SYS system with greater flexibility to deploy digital audio connectivity where it’s most convenient. The QIO-AES8x8 provides four (4) stereo pairs of AES3 digital inputs and four (4) stereo pairs of AES3 digital outputs, for a total of 8 input and 8 output channels. It integrates a broad range of digital sources such as media servers, mixing consoles, DAWs or other digital recording and playback devices. Additionally, each of the QIO Series I/O expanders features a compact form factor that can be rack- or surface-mounted.
• Expanded I/O customization
  QIO Series is intended to present a simpler way to add network I/O connectivity to Q-SYS systems, decoupling the physical location of the I/O from processing hardware to support distributed or centralized processing architectures. Additionally, QIO Series lets you customize your I/O configuration, and compliments the strengths of newer Q-SYS Core models that were designed with fewer onboard I/O options (Core Nano, Core 8 Flex, or NV-32-H (Core Capable).

• Simplicity & scalability
  Daisy-chain up to four of the QIO Series devices on a single network run (with local daisy-chained DC power) to consume fewer network ports, avoid rack clutter, and allow for quicker future expansion without pulling additional network cables. Alternatively, QIO Series are also PoE-capable, providing simple single cable connectivity (when devices aren’t daisy-chained).
• Designed for Q-SYS
  The QIO Series deliver native network I/O customization to Q-SYS, a cloud-manageable audio, video and control platform, built to deliver scalable, flexible AV solutions into the future.
