DMXking ultraDMX2

The ultimate USB DMX box with more features than anything else on the market. From basic Enttec Pro compatibility mode right through to full on Art-Net/sACN, we've got everything covered including standalone show playback of any complexity and duration.

Supporting both DMX512 output and DMX512 input individually configurable on each channel along with Art-Net and sACN protocols the ultraDMX2 PRO is the perfect choice for small to medium rigs. DMX merge functionality works from both Art-Net/sACN, DMX Input and USB DMX sources providing plenty of configuration possibilities. Designed and manufactured in New Zealand to the highest standards.

DMXking ultraDMX2

Compatible with: Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, iOS (iPhone/iPad), Android

Power Options
  • USB Power adapter not included
  • High output USB port on the router, for example, Apple Airport Extreme (Airport Express doesn't provide enough current)
Configuration

All configuration options are stored in non-volatile memory on the device. The device can be controlled by any operating system supporting ArtNet/sACN. For changing configuration options there's a Windows and OS X utility available. The ultraDMX2 PRO is set up for plug and play operation using DHCP from a factory, in most scenarios you can just hook it up to great software like Luminair and start using it right away, no need to use the configuration utility.

Supporting both Art-Net and sACN the ultraDMX2 is ideal for when you need a little more than the single universe eDMX1, but don't need PoE which is available on the eDMX2. The ultraDMX2 is also a great replacement for the discontinued RDM PRO product as it supports the same features.
