CubeConnect™ Dongle

The CubeConnect

™

Dongle is a 2.4Ghz radio receiver which plugs right into

the back of a MIRO Cube

™

or BRAQ Cube

™

, and accepts wireless lighting

control data from a

CubeConnect™

Transceiver

.

The Dongle scavenges power from the MIRO Cube

™

or BRAQ Cube

™

DMX IN

connector, and as a result, no power adapter is necessary. The radio

technology used is not compatible with other wireless DMX products as it

uses a proprietary wireless serial scheme. Line of sight range from Black Box

to Dongle is between 1000-1500ft.

NOTE:

CubeConnect™

Dongles will only receive data from

CubeConnect™

Transceivers and only function when plugged into MIRO or BRAQ Cubes

™
