  • Page 10 24V DC power is available. Alternatively, each may be individually powered over Ethernet. The Q-SYS QIO-ML2x2 is a network audio endpoint native to the Q-SYS Ecosystem, serving as a mic/line input, line output device, that enables network-based audio distribution. The compact form factor includes surface mounting hardware permitting discreet and strategic mounting while an optional rack kit fits one to four devices into a standard 1U nineteen-inch format.

  • Page 11: Power Requirements

    Power Requirements The Q-SYS QIO Series offers a flexible power solution that allows the integrator to choose to use either a 24V DC power supply or Power over Ethernet (PoE). With either power solution, you must follow the safety instructions for the specific power supply or injector chosen. For details on the 24V DC or PoE power supply requirements, refer to the product specifications.

  • Page 24: Rack Mount Installation

    Rack Mount Installation Q-SYS QIO Endpoints are designed to be mounted in a standard rack-mount unit using the Q-SYS 1RU rack tray (FG-901528-00, QIO- RMK). The rack tray accommodates up to four quarter-rack width QIO devices or two half-rack width (QIO-FLEX4A) devices. A QIO- FLEX4A unit can occupy the left, right, or center of the tray.

  • Page 25: Surface Mount Installation

    Surface Mount Installation The QIO Endpoints can also be mounted under a table, on top of a table, or on a wall. For any of these mounting applications, use the surface mounting bracket and pan head screws included with the QIO Endpoint ship kit. The brackets are symmetrical to accommodate mounting right-side up to a ground-facing surface.
