The Q-SYS Core 610 represents the next generation of Q-SYS processing, integrating the Q-SYS OS with enterprise-grade Dell commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) server hardware. This combination delivers a flexible and scalable audio, video, and control (AV&C) solution suitable for a wide range of large-scale applications. As a fully networked AV&C processor, the Core 610 allows for centralized processing across multiple rooms or zones, distributing network I/O to locations where it's most convenient. This design is ideal for enterprise environments, hospitality venues, entertainment facilities, and transportation hubs.

The Key Features of the Q-SYS Core 610:

• High Channel Capacity: Supports 256 x 256 networked audio channels via Q-LAN/AES67, with up to 256 x 256 Dante audio channels (8 x 8 included).
• Advanced Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC): Equipped with 64 AEC processors to enhance audio clarity in conferencing applications.
• VoIP Integration: Supports up to 64 VoIP softphone instances, facilitating seamless integration with existing telephony systems.
• Media Streaming: Offers 64 x 64 Media/WAN streaming capacity for efficient media distribution.
• Multitrack Playback and Recording: Provides 16 multitrack playback channels, expandable up to 128 with an optional feature license, and 4 multitrack recording channels.
• Robust Networking: Features dual gigabit Ethernet ports for redundant networked audio and two independent gigabit auxiliary Ethernet ports for segregating network services such as VoIP, SNMP, LLDP, LDAP, and WAN media streaming.
• Onboard Storage and Monitoring: Includes a 480 GB media drive and iDRAC monitoring for integration with IT monitoring systems.
• Compact Form Factor: Housed in a 1RU chassis, optimizing rack space utilization.
