QSC Q-SYS I/O-8 Flex Channel Expander — Used, Fully Functional
Up for sale is a used QSC Q-SYS I/O-8 Flex Channel Expander in fully working condition. Unit powers on normally — the front OLED display shows Device Name and Design Status as expected (see photos). All buttons, ports, and indicators function correctly. This is a professional networked audio I/O peripheral built for Q-SYS DSP systems, widely used in corporate conference rooms, houses of worship, higher education, and installed AV environments.
No external power supply or PoE+ injector included. This unit powers over PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) through the LAN A port — a single CAT cable from any PoE+ switch provides both network and power. A 24VDC external supply can also be used for redundancy.
Unit shows normal signs of rack/install use. Some light scuffing on front panel corners. Velcro on the underside from a previous table or wall mount. All connectors are intact and undamaged. All photos are of the actual item.
