Aurora Multimedia QXC-44 Quad Core IP Control System

SKU CH-W19S-3416F

Quad-core IP control system with 1 GB 1066 DDR3 RAM, 8 GB flash, four RS-232 ports, four IR/serial outputs and four I/O ports for room automation

  • Quad Core 1 GHz processor handles complex room-automation tasks
  • 1 GB 1066 DDR3 RAM with 8 GB flash stores programs and media
  • Built-in IP control engine, web server and FTP enable network management
  • Four bidirectional RS-232 ports plus four IR/serial ports connect diverse AV gear
  • Four I/O ports with A/D support sensors, relays and contact closures

Quad-Core IP Control System

The Aurora Multimedia QXC-44 is a non-proprietary IP control processor built for professional AV environments. Its quad-core architecture running at 1 GHz per core handles complex room automation, audio playback, and device management tasks. The system targets integrators who need a scalable, platform-agnostic brain for conference rooms, lecture halls, or multi-zone installations.

RS-232 and IR Connectivity Limits

Four bidirectional RS-232 ports and four IR or serial TX-only ports define the direct device control ceiling. Four additional I/O ports with analog-to-digital conversion support sensors or contact closures. The 1 GB 1066 DDR3 RAM and 8 GB flash storage bound the onboard script, web asset, and log capacity without external expansion.

Upgrading from Single-Core Controllers

This unit replaces older single-core or fixed-function control processors that cannot run a full web server, FTP service, and WACI Event Manager simultaneously. The jump is worth it when installations demand concurrent IP-based scheduling, real-time audio prompts, and multi-port device orchestration from a single chassis.

Questions about this item

How do I decide which version or capacity of the QXC-44 to choose?

The QXC-44 is a single model with a fixed configuration: Quad Core 1 GHz processor, 1 GB 1066 DDR3 RAM, 8 GB Flash, four bidirectional RS-232 ports, four IR/Serial TX ports, and four I/O with A/D.

What does the Quad Core 1 GHz processor mean for real-time control tasks?

Four cores running at 1 GHz each provide deterministic performance for simultaneous IP control, web server, FTP, browser, WACI Event Manager, and MP3 playback without resource contention.

What does the RS-232 interface cap in practice on this unit?

Four bidirectional RS-232 ports handle full two-way device communication; four additional IR/Serial ports are transmit-only RS-232 for one-way control of displays or source devices.
