4.5U Table Top Frame For Quasar Consoles With Included Power Supply

The Axia Quasar Table-Top Frame 4.5U is a professional console frame built specifically for Quasar consoles, giving stations a solid, expandable hardware foundation that supports up to 24 faders in a mid-to-large sized configuration. This frame includes a power supply as part of the purchase, providing a complete hardware foundation ready to build a console around without needing to source additional power components separately. Its robust construction and expandable design make it a practical choice for stations that need meaningful fader capacity without stepping up to the larger frame sizes in the Quasar lineup.

Support For Up To 24 Faders In A Single Frame

This 4.5U frame supports up to 24 faders alongside a Master Module, giving stations substantial channel capacity within a single, self-contained frame rather than needing to link multiple units together. This fader count sits toward the upper end of what a single Quasar frame can support, making the 4.5U size well suited to stations running fuller programming lineups with numerous simultaneous input sources. For engineers planning a console installation based on a known fader requirement, this frame size offers a straightforward option for facilities that need significant capacity without requiring a linked multi-frame Quasar XR configuration.

Expandable Design For Growing Studio Needs

Beyond its base fader support, this frame is built with expandability in mind, giving stations room to grow their console configuration as production needs change over time. Rather than committing to a completely fixed hardware configuration from day one, this expandable design allows a station's console to evolve alongside its programming and production requirements. This matters particularly for stations anticipating growth in their studio operation, since planning for future expansion during the initial installation is generally far simpler than retrofitting additional capacity into an already-installed console later.

Robust Build Quality For Long Term Daily Use

This frame is constructed with the kind of robust build quality expected from broadcast equipment intended to run reliably for years of daily studio operation. A sturdy physical frame matters considerably for equipment that houses and supports an entire console's worth of faders, modules, and connections, since any structural weakness here could affect the reliability of every component mounted within it. This durability focus reflects the same build philosophy found across the broader Quasar console family, ensuring the frame itself holds up to the same standard as the components it supports.

Power Supply Included For A Complete Hardware Package

This frame ships with its power supply included, removing the need to separately source compatible power hardware to get the frame operational. This inclusion simplifies the purchasing and installation process for stations building out a new console, since the essential power infrastructure arrives as part of the same purchase rather than requiring a separate line item to track down and order. For engineers planning a console installation, having this component included by default removes one more variable from the overall project planning process.

A Practical Fit For Mid To Large Studio Console Builds

For stations needing meaningful fader capacity without stepping up to a linked multi-frame Quasar XR configuration, this 4.5U frame offers a practical middle ground within the broader Quasar Family lineup. Its combination of substantial single-frame fader support, expandable design, and robust construction make it well suited to mid-to-large studios running complex programming lineups. Stations planning a console build around this frame size get a solid, dependable hardware foundation capable of supporting a fully featured Quasar console for years of daily broadcast use.
