MA Lighting grandMA3 onPC 8Port Node 4K PoE - 8-Port PoE Ethernet to DMX Node with 4,096 Parameters for onPC Command Wing/XT, Fader Wing and Rack-Unit in Black Finish

The MA Lighting grandMA3 onPC 8Port Node 4K PoE is a versatile and robust Ethernet-to-DMX node designed for professional lighting control systems, particularly in conjunction with the grandMA3 onPC software. This node serves two primary functions: it converts Ethernet data into DMX and expands the grandMA3 onPC system by adding 4,096 control parameters. Its 8 DMX outputs make it ideal for large-scale installations or touring rigs that require extensive DMX device control.

The grandMA3 onPC 8Port Node 4K PoE comes in a 19" 1RU rack-mountable chassis, making it a perfect fit for both touring and permanent installation setups. This compact yet powerful device allows users to control DMX-enabled lighting fixtures directly through its eight 5-pin XLR outputs. The node unlocks 4,096 parameters for use with the grandMA3 onPC software, providing users with the maximum parameter capacity needed to manage complex lighting environments. With the PoE (Power over Ethernet) capability, the node eliminates the need for separate power cabling, streamlining the setup process for both temporary and permanent installations.

All grandMA3 onPC xPort Nodes, including the 8Port Node 4K PoE, support a variety of protocols, including MA-Net3, MA-Net2, sACN, and Art-Net, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network environments. This node is also fully RDM-compliant, which allows for remote management and monitoring of connected DMX devices. A 3.9" color display on the front panel provides easy configuration access and real-time status monitoring, ensuring users can quickly adjust settings or troubleshoot when necessary.

Configuration is simplified through the grandMA3 onPC software, which offers all the features and capabilities of the larger grandMA3 consoles. This means users can enjoy a compact and cost-effective control solution without sacrificing functionality. With its ability to manage large parameter counts, integrate smoothly into Ethernet-based networks, and simplify installation with PoE, the grandMA3 onPC 8Port Node 4K PoE is an excellent choice for any professional lighting setup.
