1 Overview

1.1 About LQ

LQ™ linking facilitates interfacing to any 2-wire partyline, 4-wire and 4-wire+GPIO

endpoints either local or remote over any IP network.

The product line provides a unique combination of low latency with exceptional

audio quality and an intuitive, easy to use design.

LQ 4.0 and above also offers connectivity to HelixNet systems, SIP lines and the

Clear-Com mobile client, Agent-IC.

LQ is available in 8 models; the LQ-2W2, LQ-4W2 and LQ-4WG2 devices are small,

robust 2-port throw-down boxes for fast and convenient installation.

The LQ-R devices (LQ-R4W8, LQ-R2W4-4W4, LQR-2W4, LQ-R4WG8, LQ-

R2W4+4WG4) are single rack units providing 4 or 8 ports in a combination of 4-

wire, 4-wire + GPIO and 2-wire options for more extensive installations.

1.2 The LQ product line offers:

lHelixNet linking. HelixNet to IVC connectivity via an LQ unit allows HelixNet to

connect to a Clear-Com Eclipse matrix system.

lSIP connectivity. Up to 8 SIP clients can be connected to each LQ device.

lAgent-IC. Up to 8 Agent-IC clients can be connected to each LQ device.

lA mix of hardware and virtual ports of audio can be routed through the system

using customizable Virtual Partylines. LQ Series 4.0 offers a mix of physical

and 'virtual' ports.

lEach LQ-R unit allows up to 24 ports:

l8 hardware ports

l8 SIP ports

l8 virtual ports. IVC ports and Agent-IC ports are considered 'virtual'

ports. Virtual ports can be used in any combination up to 8 in total.

lUp to six LQ units can be linked together providing a robust network for audio

over IP
