Hybrid Art-Net Node 8 DMX Network Converter

Description

The Hybrid Art-Net Node 8 is a high-performance 8-universe Art-Net to DMX converter designed for large lighting networks, stage productions, theatres, architectural lighting, clubs, rental companies and touring systems.
It converts Art-Net (and sACN on applicable revisions) to 8 independent DMX outputs, giving lighting operators a reliable and scalable way to distribute DMX over Ethernet-based control systems.

Ideal for use with modern lighting consoles, software controllers and media servers, the Art-Net Node 8 provides stable, low-latency DMX across multiple universes, making it the backbone of professional lighting rigs.
