PL-NODE 8 is a high-speed Art-Net and sACN node offering 8 configurable DMX ports with 3-pin XLR connectors. The web-based interface allows easy configuration and monitoring from any browser, without additional software. RDM compatibility enables seamless management of RDM-enabled fixtures.
With Gigabit Ethernet support, PL-NODE 8 ensures fast data transmission and low latency — ideal for stage productions, architectural lighting and large-scale events.
Designed in Europe and assembled in India — high-quality engineering with precision manufacturing for reliable performance.
Features
- Eight DMX512 ports on 3-pin XLR connectors — reliable connections on all output ports.
- 100 % electrical isolation between all inputs and outputs — prevents cross-port issues.
- High-speed Gigabit Ethernet powered by a Marvell switch — no linking delay, IEEE 802.3-2005 compliant for long cable runs.
- RDM-over-Art-Net compatible — efficient remote device management.
- Web-based configuration and monitoring from any browser — no additional software.
- Versatile mounting: surface, rack, floor or ceiling with included multi-directional brackets.
