QSC Q-SYS NV-32-H (Core Capable)

Network Video Endpoint for the Q-SYS Ecosystem

The NV-32-H (Core Capable) is a multipurpose, software-configurable video endpoint native to the Q-SYS Ecosystem, offering two distinct operating modes to choose between, based on the needs of the application. ‘Core Mode’ transforms the device into a fully integrated Q-SYS processor with local HDMI switching capabilities. ‘Peripheral Mode’ allows multi-stream video encoding or decoding for network-based HDMI video distribution. Like all Q-SYS devices, the NV-32-H (Core Capable) offers native integration and control, simplifying setup, configuration and firmware management while eliminating the need for advanced programming knowledge.

Core Mode

True Q-SYS processing and I/O capabilities

Full-featured featured audio processing engine for the Q-SYS Ecosystem featuring 32 x 32 network audio channels, eight channels of software-based AEC, along with onboard audio I/O via HDMI, USB and 3.5 mm. Optional software feature licenses allow for even greater, customizable functionality (full-featured control engine, UCI engine, Dante audio channels, remote monitoring and more).

Integrated video switching

Core Mode enables an on-board 3 x 2 HDMI video switcher, allowing in-room users to easily share presentation or video content from their laptops or other in-room HDMI sources.

BYOD-capable web conferencing & VoIP

Integrate Q-SYS video cameras and audio via USB into all major UC&C conferencing applications, such as Microsoft Teams or Zoom. Also offers integration support for VoIP telephony systems.

Dramatic reduction in footprint and component integration costs

Consolidates disparate AV functionality in a 1RU, half-rack unit to free up physical space and reduce hardware & integration costs.

Peripheral Mode

Streamlined video streaming integration for the Q-SYS Ecosystem:

Enables native HDMI and audio distribution without additional control processors, bridges or complicated programming.

Optimized for the connected meeting space:

Q-SYS Shift™ video compression codec dynamically adjusts network bandwidth consumption based on video content, delivers the right balance of quality, latency, network efficiency and scalability for meeting room video applications.

BYOD-capable web conferencing & VoIP:

Integrate Q-SYS video cameras and audio via USB into all major UC&C conferencing applications, such as Microsoft Teams or Zoom.

Simultaneous streaming:

With 3x HDMI inputs and 2x HDMI outputs, the NV-32-H enables emerging room design scenarios, such as simultaneous 1080p60 streaming for dual-monitor rooms, with a single device.
