Introduction
The QSC Q-SYS™ NC Series comprises three camera models: NC-12x80, NC-20x60, and NC-110. These cameras send IP streams
across a Q-LAN network to certain Q-SYS Core processors and peripherals, which bridge this IP signal to a USB signal for host
computers to use in software applications.
