The ELC dmXLAN switch8LX is an 8‑port Ethernet switch built specifically for entertainment networks where mixed protocols can overwhelm generic IT gear. Designed to be the backbone of lighting and show control systems, it provides reliable 10/100 Mbps connectivity across eight copper Cat5 ports, with ports 1 and 2 offering optional dual‑mode fibre for long‑distance, noise‑immune links. Tight integration with ELC’s dmXLAN V4 software streamlines configuration, monitoring and fault reporting, so you can commission and supervise your network with confidence.
Protocol‑aware filtering for Art‑Net and MA‑Net helps prevent unnecessary broadcast traffic, keeping show data responsive and stable. Support for fast, redundant topologies means resilient loops can be built to maintain operation if a link fails. Rugged construction and practical features make it equally at home on tour or in fixed installations, delivering dependable performance for lighting networks, media servers and control data in demanding environments.
Ideal for theatres, touring productions, festivals and corporate events where robust, low‑latency lighting data distribution is essential.
