Overview

The MA Lighting grandMA3 onPC 2Port Node 2K PoE is an essential Ethernet-to-DMX node designed for grandMA3 onPC systems, offering Power over Ethernet (PoE) for added flexibility and simplified power management. This compact device combines the capabilities of DMX conversion and parameter expansion, making it an ideal choice for touring professionals, small installations, and cost-effective lighting setups. The 2Port Node PoE features two DMX outputs and unlocks 4,096 parameters directly on your grandMA3 onPC system, ensuring powerful performance in a compact form factor.

The grandMA3 onPC 2Port Node 2K PoE fits perfectly in a half-width, 1RU chassis, allowing it to be conveniently integrated into rack systems for permanent installations or portable setups. Its PoE functionality eliminates the need for external power supplies, simplifying installation by using a single Ethernet cable for both power and data. This makes the device perfect for venues or setups where running additional power cables would be a challenge. The node can be mounted in a variety of ways, thanks to a wide range of accessories that offer customizable installation options.

With support for MA-Net3, MA-Net2, sACN, and Art-Net protocols, the grandMA3 onPC 2Port Node 2K PoE is a highly versatile tool that integrates seamlessly into your existing lighting network infrastructure. It is fully RDM (Remote Device Management) compliant, allowing for remote configuration, monitoring, and control of DMX fixtures. The node features a front-facing 3.9" color display, providing real-time status information and easy access to configuration settings for simplified setup and monitoring in any environment.

Ideal for professionals who need the power of a larger console in a smaller, more affordable format, the grandMA3 onPC 2Port Node 2K PoE enables up to 4,096 parameters (HTP/LTP) when used with grandMA3 onPC software. This parameter count was doubled in software version 1.7, making it the most powerful option for the grandMA3 onPC system. The node also integrates seamlessly with grandMA3 onPC Command Wing, Command Wing XT, Fader Wing, and Rack-Unit, providing scalable solutions for a wide range of lighting control applications.

The grandMA3 onPC 2Port Node 2K PoE is built for reliability, capable of handling busy Ethernet connections without sacrificing DMX or RDM performance. Its robust construction ensures durability for both touring and permanent installations, while its compact size makes it easy to transport and integrate into any system. Whether you're running complex live events or building a fixed installation, the grandMA3 onPC 2Port Node 2K PoE is a smart and reliable solution for DMX control.
