MA debuts wall-mounted PoE nodes

Germany - After recently introducing a new series of 1Gbit Network Nodes, MA Lighting is now launching wall mounted PoE (power over Ethernet) versions of the 1Gbit MA 2Port Node and MA 4Port Node, allowing the conversion of Ethernet data into DMX or vice versa. These latest Network Nodes fit into the MA system and its high speed MA-Net2 protocol, ensuring maximum performance and network stability.

Optimised for installations applications, the wall mount (WM) nodes feature a rugged steel housing for long life even under harsh conditions. A 2" colour TFT-Display can be found at the front whilst all DMX connectors, the USB-connector, the menu button and the status LEDs are at the bottom of the housing for ergonomic operation.

All 1Gbit MA network Nodes are fully configurable from any of the grandMA2 consoles or grandMA2 onPC software. To achieve the highest flexibility, each DMX port can be individually configured as either DMX in or DMX out. Powered via PoE (power over Ethernet) the new WM Nodes need no additional power supply.
