Clear-Com LQ-R2W4-4W4 LQ Series 8-Port 1RU Partyline and 4-Wire IP Interface
The LQ-R2W4-4W4 mixes both interface types in one rack unit: four 2-wire partyline ports on XLR-3F and four 4-wire ports on RJ45 etherCON. Most real facilities are not purely one or the other, and this is the unit that avoids buying two boxes to bridge a legacy partyline and a matrix at the same site.
Every LQ unit joins a link group of up to six LQ, Gen-IC or HMS-4X members carrying 24 channels and 24 directs, and each one hosts eight virtual interface ports and eight virtual clients for Agent-IC and Station-IC users. Two bridged RJ45 etherCON LAN ports allow a daisy chain, a yellow OLED display with five backlit buttons handles local configuration, and licences such as SIP8-LQ and VIRTUAL-IC-LQ are applied per unit through CCM.
