16 Ion Classic User Manual
IO Garage
Apex consoles come equipped with four input / output bays for custom configuration of the
available data ports on the back of the console, collectively known as the IO garage.
Any ETC Gadget II or Response Show Control Gateway can be added to the garage and
connected internally via USB for local input / output of DMX, MIDI, SMPTE, and other
protocols.
Network Ports
Ethernet
Ethernet ports are for connecting to a network switch, network gateways, and accessory
devices. Each port can be run as a separate NIC, and can be configured to directly output
network-based lighting control protocols such as sACN or Art-Net.
All ports provide PoE++, with up to 100W per port, and 120W total across all ports.
See
Output Protocols (on page 555)
for more information.
Enhanced Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP+)
SFP+ ports are provided for direct-to-core connection, or high-speed links between session
devices, and can take a variety of sled options. Sleds are field changeable for easy
reconfiguration.
Note:
Apex consoles, Windows 10 consoles, and ETCnomad software do not
support draft sACN, Net2, or AVAB UDP output protocols.
USB Ports
Data Ports
USB A and C ports are provided on the front of the console to connect any USB storage device.
Additional USB A and C ports on the rear panel and in the keyboard tray of the console
connect peripherals such as an alphanumeric keyboard, pointing device, or touchscreen
control for external monitors.
CAUTION:
The USB data ports cannot be used for charging devices.
Charging Ports
Two USB A ports, capable of delivering 5A / 12.5W of power each, are available for charging
devices. One is located under the encoder display on the front right of the desk. The other is
located under the faders on the front left of the desk (Apex 5), or inside the accessory drawer
(Apex 10 and 20).
