Abundant connections
The CI S1 features a comprehensive range of inputs and outputs, ensuring that any source, whether cloud or streaming, can be connected and streamed wherever the customer wants. With Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity, digital and analogue audio inputs with signal detection, sub output, and a configurable 12V trigger input and 12V trigger output, it offers integrators unprecedented flexibility in connectivity.
