HiQnet™ Area







  • HiQnet™ is a communications protocol or language for audio devices
  • System Architect™ is the software for central system control
  • System-wide intuitive configuration and monitoring
  • Built on standard network technologies
  • Designed specifically for complex system control

HiQnet™ is a communications protocol or language with which all device-types within the full audio signal path can communicate.

The HiQnet™ advantage: HiQnet™ provides efficient configuration and control of complex audio systems as well as convenient monitoring of important parameters of all audio devices on the network. The HiQnet™ protocol enables compatible devices from different manufacturers to be connected to the same HiQnet™ network. For this purpose, HiQnet™ uses standard network technology such as the Ethernet protocol or commercial CAT-5 network cables.

Today's HiQnet system  is built from flagship products from Harman Pro brands AKG Acoustics, BSS Audio, Crown International, dbx Professional, JBL Professional, Lexicon Pro, Soundcraft and Studer.

The entire HiQnet™ system is configured and controlled with a single software application - Harman Pro System Architect™. A comprehensive core PC application into which device-specific plug-ins developed by each Harman Pro brand can be loaded. System Architect™ has been written entirely from the ground up to achieve the goal of accommodating all requirements from all the links in a signal chain. System Architect™ has been optimized for use in both tour sound and installation environments and includes features enabling quick and easy system configuration for both disciplines.

Whether in real-time from a device's default software editor, from an advanced custom-designed control panel running on a touchscreen PC, with System Architect's optimized mode of operation for control from a wireless tablet PC or from a dedicated hardware touchscreen wall-controller, all parameters from across an entire HiQnet system are instantly accessible.  Never before has such full control been at the operator's fingertips.

With the AKG HUB 4000 Q, the WMS 4000/4500 and  IVM 4 can be integrated into a HiQnet™ system. The HiQnet Ethernet Interface HUB 4000 Q integrates up to 8 AKG devices into a HiQnet™ network. The AKG HiQnet plug-in of System Architect makes the setup and configuration of a wireless system a child’s play, with tools like RF Monitor, Environment Scan, Programmer Guide and 1 Click Setup.
