Ether2DMX8 User Manual
Ethernet Data Connection
The Ethernet cable from the Artnet Source is connected on the back of the router into the port labeled
"ETHERNET" . This is a Ethercon connector and the use of Ethercon cables is recommended.
However any RJ45 connector is suitable.
Be careful not to plug the cable into the LINK port which is also an Ethercon connection, but with a
blue ring around it.
To connect multiple Ether2DMX8 to an Artnet Source an Ethernet switch is required to split the data
into the desired amount of streams. It is recommended to use an unmanaged switch to ensure
accurate transfer of the Artnet Data without delay.
To connect a single Artnet Source like a Maxedia Pro media server to the router, use a RJ45
crossover cable.
Please note that the EtherDMX port of a Maxxyz Compact is auto sensing and a normal patch
cable is sufficient for this connection.
The Ethernet connection is also used to connect a computer to the Ether2DMX8 for remote
configuration via a web browser. Information about the web access can be found
here
in the manual.
USB
The back of the router provides USB connections for firmware updates and backups.
Use commonly found USB sticks for any file transfer. The USB stick has to be formatted in FAT32 to
be usable with the router.
Do not use portable hard drives that draw high currents of the USB ports.
