PIXELATOR MINI – User Manual
Compact and powerful DIN-Rail Ethernet to Pixel Link converter capable of controlling up to 16 universes
(8,192 channels).
ENTTEC's PIXELATOR MINI is smaller 8-port half-
width Ethernet pixel controller within the PIXELATOR
family, perfectly suited to small and medium scale
installations using ENTTEC's PLink protocol. Each
Plink port provides data to ENTTEC's PLink Injectors
which can control up to 2 Universes each, making
the PIXELATOR MINI capable of controlling up to
8,192 channels (2,730 RGB Pixels) with perfect
synchronization across all outputs.
The PIXELATOR MINI supports a wide range of pixel
protocols, which can be controlled with sACN, Art-
Net, ESP and Kling-Net through an intuitive web
browser. Controlling LED pixels, dots and digital
strips has never been easier.
Our PLINK protocol can transmit up to 1024 channels
(2 Universes) over a 300m distance using Cat5e/Cat6
cable to each ENTTEC PLINK INJECTOR. This allows
for control of up to 340 RGB or 256 RGBW pixel per
output. This satellite system provides great
flexibility, and since all data conversion is processed
on the PIXELATOR device, the P-Link injector is kept
as compact as possible.
Depending on the application, choose between the
indoor or outdoor IP PLINK INJECTORs, ensuring the
voltage is compatible with the pixels and power
supply installed locally to the PLINK INJECTORs.
ENTTEC's PIXELATOR MINI is also available in a DIN-
rail form factor!
