Introduction
The grandMA 2-Port Node is the latest member of the grandMA family that seamlessly fits into the network of the MA product range.
The 2-Port Node was designed in view of a decentralized DMX distribution for smaller applications within non-complex networks.
The 2-Port Node can also be integrated into third party systems, as 100Mbit/s and ARTNET offer a great deal of flexibility. It is,
however, not designed as channel expansion of existing grandMA consoles, as this would require additional NSPs.
We also offer alternative versions having varied channel numbers in two different housings and with multiple DMX plug designs.
The flush-mount version for stationary installations has no housing and no separate power supply (PowerIOverEthernet). It is designed
for use in combination with a console only.
The rig-mounted version with housing and an additional separate power supply is designed to be used in a rig or on stage.
All 2-Port Nodes are characterized by their simple operation, their few clear menus, and by the fact that they can easily be integrated
into the network. Furthermore, as members of the grandMA family, they use the same software which means simple configuration and
updates from any grandMA console or the onPC.
For experienced MA operators, using the 2-Port Node will present nothing new, and those using it for the first time will just have to
get familiar with the „onPC“ software. And now: have fun with the 2-Port Node!
