GUDE Systems has announced a new partnership with QSC, a US-based provider of professional AV products, providing drivers to enable seamless integration of GUDE power strips into QSC’s Q-SYS control software.
Q-SYS is a control platform for AV environments with cloud-based IT architecture. Through the collaboration, installers of AV environments and their users can benefit from smooth control and monitoring of GUDE’s power distributors.
The integration allows control of individual load outputs of the network-compatible power strip, as well and measuring and querying sensor data such as temperature and humidity in real-time. It also allows users to monitor voltage, current and power of the power strip’s input and outputs. Integrators can also remotely reboot any load.
Users can set up and display this data within Q-SYS with just a few clicks. Without having to switch applications, users can use it to perform switching operations of the power distribution systems, detect critical environmental conditions at an early stage and set up cost-saving automations.
The aspect of sustainability and energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important in the operation of IT and AV infrastructures. The compatibility of Q-SYS with switchable IP power strips with GUDE gained from the cooperation fully benefits the user in the infrastructure here.
