PXLNET TRANSMITTER FEATURES
SPI protocols are sensitive to data distortion and often only work safely over up to 6.5 ft
(2 m) of cable distance. The PxLNet Transmitter is a small extension module that can be
connected to the C4 controller outputs. It converts SPI or DMX TTL signals to PxLNet to
send them across large distances. It can convert any industry standard SPI protocol that can
be output from an SPI controller. Output the same number of universes with this transmitter
as sent from the SPI controllers output port(s). This product can not only convert SPI
protocols but it also converts DMX TTL signals to standard DMX512. That means the PxLNet
Transmitter can be used to connect four differential DMX signals up to 1640 ft (500 m) away.
The onboard voltage regulator accepts voltages ranging from 12-24 VDC. Installation is easy
thanks to the RJ45 outputs, which quickly connect to our PxLNet Transceiver modules.
NOTE: We take great care with our products and have a standard of quality control, but we advise you to double-check for
missing or damaged items. In case of any missing or damaged items, please contact your supplier immediately. Never use
damaged products!
