PowerGate Solid

Indoor Power Signal Management Interface

HomePlug Powerline to DMX converter with up to four optically isolated DMX ports for indoor installation

PowerGate Solid is a multifunctional converter for transmitting DMX signals (PWRDMX technology) over power lines.

PowerGate Solid supports communication based on PWRDMX, DMX512, RDM (ANSI E1.20), ArtNet (1, 2, 3, 4), sCAN (Draft, Release), KiNet (v1, v2), RTTrPL, and Ethernet in various signal reception/transmission combinations over power lines (up to 400 meters in length) and Ethernet network.

The unit is powered via 110/220 V AC power lines.

Additional Ethernet equipment connects through the integrated 10/100 Mbps port.

The hardware can be configured through the web interface, the ArtGate Setting utility, third-party software that supports the ArtNet protocol, or ARISTO software.

PowerGate Solid is designed to operate in temperatures above zero, whether in indoor or outdoor areas. The vandal-resistant duralumin housing with an IP44 rating can be mounted on a bracket or on a vertical or horizontal surface.
