ELC dmXLAN node3 User Manual 

 

Truss Mount (DLN3T / DLN3T_FI)  

The Truss Mount version of the node3 has a built-in power supply and is equipped 
with 3 DMX ports and 2 Ethernet ports (both with Neutrik Ethercon) located on the 
back of the device. The DMX ports are bi-directional so they can function as input or 
output. The unit has an M10 nut on the bottom and a safety eye. The DLN3T is also 
available in a fully isolated version (DLN3T_FI). All node3 Truss Mount versions can be 
mounted in a 19” rack using the ELC Rack Mount Kit (ELC-RMKIT).  

Truss Mount Power over Ethernet (DLN3TPOE / DLN3TPOE_FI) 

The Truss Mount Power over Ethernet version of the node3 has specifications 
identical to the regular node3 Truss Mount, except for the power supply. This version 
is powered by PoE instead of a built-in power supply. The PoE version of the node3 
Truss Mount is also available in a fully isolated version (DLN3TPOE_FI). 

Surface Mount (DLN3S / DLN3S_FI)  

The Surface Mount version of the node3 can be mounted onto a wall.  
The Surface Mount unit has 3 bi-directional DMX ports located on the front of the 
device. The DMX ports can be ordered in male or female version (any combination is 
possible), as well as a version with fully isolated DMX ports (DLN3T_FI). There is also 
one Ethernet connection (Neutrik Ethercon) on the front of the node3 SM. Another – 
internal – Ethernet connection (RJ45) is located on the back of the device. This is the 
main Ethernet input and requires a PoE switch as its power supply. To gain access to 
the internal Ethernet connection, a technician must open the housing of the node3 
by removing the four screws located along the sides of the front panel. 

Wall Mount (DLN3W / DLN3W_FI)  

The Wall Mount version features the same hardware and specifications as the 
Surface Mount version, but the housing is designed for recessed wall mounting. 

DIN Version (DLN3DIN / DLN3DIN_FI)  

This DIN-rail mounted Power over Ethernet version connects 3 bi-directional DMX 
ports to an Ethernet network, and an internal switch provides a second Ethernet port  
for a local lighting desk or a PC running ELC dmXLAN control/management freeware 
or additional Ethernet switches or nodes. 
The DIN version of the node3 is also available in a fully isolated version (DLN3DIN_FI).
