Wireless Solution W-DMX BlackBox R-512 Receiver
The W-DMX system lies at the heart of every one of our BlackBox products. W-DMX is specifically engineered by Wireless Solution Sweden AB to provide the same quality, reliability and performance as any hardwired DMX data link. In fact W-DMX gives you greater freedom to create reliable point-to-point and point-to-multipoint installations over large distances.
W-DMX is unique in its use of certain advanced radio techniques which are more often found in mobile phone and military communications. Rather than using fixed frequency channels, W-DMX uses adaptive frequency hopping technology to continually check for interference and to rapidly move operation over to clear radio channels. This occurs one thousand times every second and is used in combination with another advanced technique (called time division multiple access) which makes the most efficient use of every visited frequency channel. The advantage of such technology will quickly become clear to you: consistent and wide ranging control of your lighting systems over potentially great distances. Indeed, you may actually find that it is all too easy to take W-DMX for granted, for two main reasons:
• Firstly, the complex communication protocols are fully automated and concealed from view - you just plug-and-play, the BlackBox units do all the hard work.
• Secondly, from the DMX connector of one BlackBox unit to the DMX connector of another, the W-DMX system is totally transparent. W-DMX fully adheres to the USITT DMX-512 standard and can justifiably be called a ‘wireless DMX cable’.
These are the reasons why in every independent comparison with competing products, BlackBox W-DMX units continually take first prize for distance covered, resilience against interference and ease of installation.
