Scaling & Feature Licenses
Expanded software-based functionality

Expand functionality at the software-level
Anticipate changing requirements and leverage additional features via simple license activations, powered by the Q-SYS Intelligent Platform OS. Q-SYS Scaling Licenses offer expanded functionality in alignment with your specific installation requirements, while Q-SYS Feature Licenses enable additional features on Q-SYS Products, letting you design your Q-SYS system to the unique needs of each space.
Q-SYS Scaling Licenses
Q-SYS Core Nano & Core 8 Flex Capacity Scaling License
Enable your Core Nano or Core 8 Flex processors to scale into areas that require increased processing power, total network channel capacity and peripheral count . It also expands the resources aimed at meeting spaces or BGM/paging applications, including AEC channel, NM Series microphone capacity, softphones, and Media / WAN streaming capacity.
Q-SYS Core 610 Scaling License
Expand the capabilities of the Q-SYS Core 610 at the software level, whether before installation or as business needs change. Increases the overall power of the processor, increasing capacity for total network channels, Media/WAN streaming channels, AEC channels and Q-SYS NM Series microphone capacity.
