Connecting the Fairlight Modules
After installing the Fairlight modules and plugging in power, connect each module to the other
using an Ethernet daisy chain. It doesn’t matter which particular unit is connected to the other,
as long as they are all connected via their Ethernet ports.
If you would like to use an Ethernet switch to connect the modules, this is ok and just place the
Ethernet switch inside the console where there is lots of space. Then you can connect each
panel module to the switch directly.
Below is an example of how you could connect the Fairlight modules in a daisy chain.
Ethernet
HDMI
Computer
CONTROL ROOM
STUDIO
TIP
We recommend using 1.2 meter Cat6 Ethernet cables. These will allow you to
lift the panel brackets after installation without stretching the cables.
Connecting the Fairlight Console to your Computer
Once all the modules in the console are connected together via ethernet, connect one of them
to the computer that will run DaVinci Resolve.
