Lesson Description
Understand the redundancy options available to Q-SYS systems, including those for the Core, I/O Frames, Network, and Amplifiers.Tips and Definitions
Core Redundancy allows a second Core to be connected to the network. Should the primary Core go offline for any reason, the secondary Core takes over.Input/Output Redundancy give the designer the option of adding redundant I/O for high priority areas.
Network Redundancy may be implemented by simply adding additional network switches an cabling. In the event of a network failure, the Q-SYS components switch over instantly to the backup network.
Amplifier Redundancy is made possible with the use of the QSC DAB-801 (DataPort Amplifier Backup panel) which configures five 2-channel QSC DataPort amplifiers so that the fifth amplifier automatically kicks in if a problem is detected with any of the other four (4+1 redundancy). A second DAB-801 may be added for 8 + 1 redundancy.
