Cambridge Qt X 800D Multi-Zone Sound Masking System

Cambridge Qt X 800D Multi-Zone Sound Masking System with Dante and AVB Networking
The Cambridge Qt X 800D is a high-performance eight-zone sound masking generator designed for plenum installations, supporting both direct-field and in-plenum speakers. Ideal for corporate offices, healthcare facilities, government buildings, and educational institutions, this system enhances speech privacy while reducing noise distractions. With AVB and Dante networking, PoE+ power, and integrated paging and background music inputs, the Qt X 800D offers a flexible and scalable sound masking solution for large-scale environments.

Eight Independent Zones for Customizable Sound Masking
The Qt X 800D allows independent control of up to eight zones, enabling precise adjustments to sound masking and auxiliary audio settings. Each amplified output can be individually configured to ensure the right acoustic balance in different areas, from open-plan offices to private rooms. This level of control ensures optimal speech privacy while maintaining a comfortable sound environment.

Supports Both Direct-Field and In-Plenum Speaker Configurations
This system is compatible with both direct-field active emitters and indirect in-plenum speakers, allowing for tailored installations based on environmental needs. Whether using ceiling-mounted direct emitters or in-plenum speakers for broader coverage, the Qt X 800D provides the flexibility to design a sound masking system that fits specific acoustic requirements.

AVB and Dante Networking for Seamless Integration
The Qt X 800D features AVB and Dante network support, making it easy to integrate into existing networked audio systems. When multiple Qt X controllers are used, audio inputs can be shared across all controllers via AVB or Dante, ensuring synchronized sound masking and paging across large facilities. This makes it an excellent choice for enterprises requiring scalable and high-performance sound masking solutions.

Integrated Paging and Background Music Inputs
Two auxiliary audio inputs allow the system to distribute paging and background music alongside sound masking. Users can broadcast important announcements or ambient music to selected zones without compromising speech privacy. This feature is essential for businesses, medical centers, and public institutions that need clear communication while maintaining a controlled acoustic environment.

User-Friendly Control with Remote Access and Scheduling
The front panel LCD provides an intuitive interface for adjusting sound masking and auxiliary audio settings, while network connectivity enables remote management via a web-enabled device. Event scheduling and automatic ramping ensure adaptive sound control throughout the day, reducing manual adjustments while maintaining consistent acoustic comfort.

Fire Alarm Integration and Secure System Locking
The Qt X 800D includes a contact closure input for fire alarm integration, ensuring emergency notifications take priority when needed. A software-controlled panel lock prevents unauthorized access to system settings, making it a secure option for high-priority installations in government, medical, and corporate environments.

TAA Compliance and Certified for Secure Installations
Fully compliant with the United States Trade Agreement Act (TAA) and eligible for GSA contracts, the Qt X 800D meets federal government procurement standards. It also complies with UL 2043 for air-handling spaces, ensuring safe plenum installations. Covered by Biamp Systems’ five-year warranty, this system is built for long-term reliability and efficiency.
