Swisson XND-8R5 Ethernet Node (Rack)

Art-Net to DMX converter

The XND-4 and XND-8 nodes are user-friendly converters from Art-Net and sACN to DMX, enabling the distribution of up to 8 DMX universes via individually isolated DMX outputs. Since most larger lighting consoles can send Art-Net data, the XND-4 or XND-8 is all you need to take advantage of your console's network capabilities. This allows you to transmit a large number of universes over a single network cable. In some cases, users can also take advantage of existing network infrastructure. In addition, the XND is perfect for sending DMX data from your computer or even a mobile device to your fixtures. Many lighting control programs for PC or Mac support Art-Net natively, and thanks to the XND's DHCP capability, you can also leave the network configuration to your workplace network infrastructure. With the 128x64-pixel OLED display, configuring the network and setting the Art-Net or sACN addressing can also be done manually without any problems, and helpful status information is visible at all times. When two controllers send data to the same universe, the XND automatically merges the data, which simplifies the integration of a backup control system. This function can also prove extremely helpful when testing during commissioning.
