Description
Fresh and up-to-date information about GigaJet PRO here
Multifuctional rack mounted bidirectional converter, splitter, booster, intelligent merger transmitting DMX/ArtNet/sACN/KiNet/RTTrPL streams in Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Base-T) and fibre optic networks. Fibre optic increases maximum length of direct connection between devices up to 2000 metres (using multimode SFP modules), or up to 10 km (using single mode SFP modules). The device also acts as 5-port Ethernet switch working in 10/100/1000BASE-TX networks.
Application
- Convert DMX512 into ArtNet and sACN protocols in both directions to transmit DMX data through Ethernet LAN and optical link for long distances up to 10,000 metres between transmitter and receiver
- Working with lighting installations when distance between FOH console and stage exceeds 100 metres
- Transmit more DMX streams with less cables
- Gigabit network switch
- Lighting control and management through single network (Ethernet + fibre)
- Convert mapped video content from mapping software into DMX streams
- Provide interfacing between modern stage lighting software and DMX lighting
- Real-time control of video projectors and laser units supporting
- ArtNet or sACN from DMX console
Key Features
- 8 DMX512 ports (XLR 5-pin, 2 paired)
- Integrated fibre optic port (SFP module)
- Gigabit network switch
- 5 Ethernet ports (EtherCON)
- PoE support
- Maximum surge protection – power supply optimized for voltage from 90 to 315 V
- Simple user-friendly web interface
- Configurable DMX port direction and parametres
- Supported network protocols: ArtNet I,II,III,4, sACN draft/release, KiNet v1,v2, RTTrPL
- Full RDM E1.20 support (controller/responder)
- Static scenes (presets) stored in non-volatile memory
- Ability to work as standalone splitter/merger
- Fastest recovery after short power failure
- PowerCON TRUE1 inlet+outlet combination
- Trigger inputs for external events and alarms
- DHCP support
- IP address conflict detection
v. 4.10, April 2021
- Minor bugs fixed
- Several buttons renamed
v. 4.09, February 2020
- Smart output feature now on each individual port: multiple controllers/converters can be safely connected to the same DMX bus
- New parameters for individual ports: input timeout, output frame repetition period, output data validity timeout, RDM enable/disable
- Output universe data can be shifted to offset from -511 to +511: any portion of DMX address space now can be moved to any position
- SLP support: nodes are now discoverable for consoles and other management systems supporting ANSI E1.17 standard (ACN SDT/DMP)
Merging Options
- HTP: highest takes precedence,
- LTP: latest takes precedence,
- AUTO: last modified takes precedence – smart merging mode,
- PRIORITY: for sACN streams with priority tag, console with the highest priority for a given Universe will be in charge,
- BACKUP: any network universe or local static scene can be selected for outputting when main source fails,
- TRIGGER and X-FADE: switch dynamically between lighting desks, media servers, and other control sources.
