Clear-Com LQ-R4WG8 LQ Series 8-Port 4-Wire 1RU IP Interface with GPIO
The LQ-R4WG8 is the eight-port 4-wire rack interface with general purpose I/O on every port, presented on a DB9M alongside the audio. Eight linked circuits each carrying their own tally and control closures is the configuration a broadcast facility ends up needing once the audio side is solved.
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.
