Gateway 4 provides flexible DMX / RDM data distribution, converting four universes of Ethernet (sACN or Art-Net) into
DMX512/RDM. The unit can be desk mounted or safely secured to a vertical or horizontal bar by adding a standard
clamp onto one of two m10 mounting positions.

Gateway 4 is fully compatible with the latest protocols (sACN, Art-Net 4, LLRP, DMX & RDM), ensuring your
distribution network is ready to meet your future demands. Gateway 4 is appropriate for permanent installations or as
a flexible, adaptable rental & touring tool due to it’s compact, rugged and scratch-resistant metal design.

When combined with any ZerOS console, Gateway 4 provides on-board configuration from the console, for a truly
integrated system. Alternatively, the unit can be configured through an internal web server or via optional control
software. DHCP enables automatic IP addressing; static IP and LLRP negotiation are also supported.

Gateway 4 is ideal for use alongside 

Splitter 8

 and 

Gateway 8

 to build a larger data distribution system.

Please read this manual before use, especially the Warnings & Safety section.
