In the age of personalization, we can customize everything from cars, gaming PCs, and sneakers to simple conveniences like our fast-food combo orders. Shouldn’t we expect the same out of the technology that drives our work environments?
When it comes to audiovisual systems, you should be able to choose the set of components that’s right for your unique space to reduce pain points, address isolation, and power collaboration from both in and outside of the office. Finding the perfect combination for a specific meeting space can feel a lot like ordering dinner for a group—carefully ensuring everyone has what they need as well as some optionality to choose what they prefer, without paying for the entire menu.
Thanks to additional product certifications, Q-SYS has now expanded its Zoom Certified portfolio to help you deliver the right array of solutions for your collaborative spaces.
The Complete Q-SYS Menu
A Q-SYS-powered menu of options for meeting rooms and other collaboration spaces—backed by a robust Zoom Certified portfolio—starts with the selection of Q-SYS Core processors like the Core 110f, Core Nano, Core 8 Flex, or NV-32-H (in Core Mode). No matter what you choose, you can then layer in a microphone selection to correctly pick up audio from room participants—from ceiling microphones like the Sennheiser TCC 2 or TCC M to the Shure MXA920 or Audio-Technica ATND 1061, or even the Q-SYS NM-T1 tabletop microphone.
You can then add loudspeakers from the QSC AcousticDesign series, powered by Q-SYS SPA or SPA-Q Series amplifiers. If it makes more sense for your environment, you can instead select a PoE networked option like the Q-SYS NL-SB42 soundbar. For a complete solution to fit your room, top off your setup with one of the Q-SYS NC Series PTZ cameras.
No matter if you’re equipping a huddle room or outfitting a technologically rich, high-impact space, there’s a customizable Q-SYS solution for your Zoom Room.
Build Your Own Meal
As a practical snapshot, imagine your organization determines it needs a new, immersive space for executive-level Zoom meetings. We know that audio and video quality for that room are paramount to ensuring effective communication, maintaining participants’ attention, and supporting an equitable experience where all participants can be heard and seen clearly.
To create such an environment, we could start with the Core Nano and then add our SPA-Q series amplifier with the AcousticDesign Series surface-mounted loudspeakers on either side of the display, complemented by ceiling loudspeakers in the back of the room for audio reinforcement. Through these products, we can leverage Zoom’s spatial audio capabilities to create the immersive experience the room requires.
Of course, we would also want to send the audio and room views to far side participants, so we would recommend adding a ceiling microphone, like the recently Zoom-certified Shure MXA920, for audio pickup. To top it all off, we would include a few Q-SYS NC Series PTZ cameras to capture the necessary room views that support meeting equity.
With a software-based foundation and broad portfolio of Zoom Certified products, these decisions are flexible and scalable over time. Q-SYS and complementary partner products are designed to work together, so that you can continue to make changes that ensure your AV system evolves and grows alongside your organization for an unforgettable experience every time.
