Lighting designers, programmers and operators are invited to explore the latest innovations December 3-5 the 2023 LDI tradeshow in Las Vegas. Obdisian lighting control will be found at booth #1342 and visitors will have a chance to demo both hardware and PC systems, including the NX1, Obsidian’s scalable, full-featured lighting console and companions to the console including a compact, motorized fader wing, the NXP, as well as a small USB-powered control surface for Onyx, the NXK.
IP65 range for entertainment data distribution
On display in Obsidian’s line of Netron signal distribution devices will be their first line of IP65-rated data distribution products for entertainment, a recent winner of a PLASA Award for Innovation. Utilizing a custom-designed sealed chassis, IP ports and touch controls, Netron IP65 solutions are provided as a 6-port RDM Splitter (RDM6 IP), 6-port EtherDMX Node (EN6 IP) and an 8-port managed POE switch (NS8 IP).
New installation devices
Obsidian is also launching a comprehensive line of Netron products in smart form factors optimized for system integrators and fixed installations. Two new compact devices with interchangeable connection plates offer performance and flexibility. Available as RDM6D (6-port RDM Splitter) and EN6D (6-port EtherDMX Node), these rugged chassis can be DIN-Rail or wall mounted and provide data ports that can be repositioned to the top, bottom or front of the devices.
Other new devices from Netron include the EN12i, a powerful hardwired rackmount node; EP1, the new single-gang size EtherDMX node in the Netron line; NS8, Netron’s half-rack-sized managed switch solution; and RP2, an intelligent 2-way DMX power relay that serves as a protective device for lighting fixtures.
