It also features IP control for network-connected devices, as well as wireless Zigbee control.

It delivers a new level of speed and performance for instantaneous control on an interactive 4K on-screen. Furthermore, Core 3 includes a variety of I/O to automate devices controlled by IP, IR, serial, ZigBee and Zwave. Besides that, it also has a remote-location addition with the AC or PoE+ for power and an Ethernet output to provide network connection to another device.

Entertainment

CORE 1 provides high quality audio and a second independent zone – digital audio and HDMI outputs. The Ryff, built-in high-resolution audio server, provides independent audio streams for each output. That allows customers to listen to their local music library or stream from music services. CORE 3 contains all the great features as its predecessor but includes new DACs to power two analog audio outputs, one digital audio output and an HDMI output. CORE 5 has even more outputs: HDMI, three digital and three analog. It also includes new DACs with signal-to-noise ratio of 118dB and powerful DSPs.
