Enttec USB DMX Pro interface

Products don’t become an industry standard for no reason. The DMX USB Pro has proven for a number of years that it’s both a reliable and robust product usable for a number of applications. It has been adopted by multiple professionals across the world. The DMX USB Pro allows for simple USB 2.0 support through a robust USB-B connection, sending or receiving a physical DMX512 signal using PCs, Macs and Linux devices running a broad array of third-party software.

With industry standard-5 pin input and output connections as well as 1500V full isolation for both data and power lines, you can rest assured that your computer will be protected from any stray voltages and faults that may occur on the DMX line. Furthermore, this DMX USB interface features an internal frame buffer for consistent DMX generation when outputting. This means it isn’t dependant on your PC’s processor to regulate a steady, reliable flow of data and to provide a stable data stream regardless of your PC’s workload.
You can also view the activity of the DMX USB Pro quickly using it’s LED status indicator. Use ENTTEC’s free PRO-Manager software to test, update and configure your USB Pro alongside other products in the ENTTEC range. Pro Manager is easy to use and runs on both Windows and Mac (up to OSX 10.11). You can even change the firmware to support your exacting requirement (RDM or Non-RDM). The DMX USB Pro is compatible with an enormous range of commercial and free software.
