ETC Launches New Eight-Port DMX Gateways

	With multiple mounting options and repositionable network ports, the Response Mk2 8-port DMX Gateway fits comfortably wherever it is needed, the company says.

ETC is expanding its Response Mk2 DMX Gateway family with two new eight-port options: a full-width Gateway with eight XLR connections, and a half-width Gateway with eight terminal connections.

Kirk Starks, ETC marketing product manager, says, "No matter if there are a bunch of homeruns from LED coves running back to an equipment rack, or a complex concert rig, I'm excited about the possibilities that come with trusted DMX control from these new eight-port gateways." These higher-density gateways deliver the same system functionality at a lower price, the company says, while utilizing less rack space. With multiple mounting options and repositionable network ports, the Response Mk2 8-port DMX Gateway fits comfortably wherever it is needed, the company says.

The Terminal version is the same size as ETC's current four-port Gateway, packing twice the number of three-position terminal connections into the same amount of space. Using an existing rack-mount kit, it is possible to get 16 ports of DMX output into a 1U rack space by mounting two eight-port terminal gateways side-by-side.
