Storm to the power of 8
The Storm 8 is a compact Ethernet-DMX converter, a smaller sibling to the Storm 24. However, don’t let its size fool you! As one of a kind, the Storm 8 packs a huge punch and is powerful enough to control up to 4096 channels of DMX, with synchronization across all eight of its RJ45 outputs, up to 300m away.
The Storm 8’s robust 1U half-width hardware is enhanced by a mains input and an intuitive web interface. In addition, it features front LED indicators showing the status and connectivity of each unit, making installations both simple and fast. Furthermore, to increase the unit’s size to fit a full-width rack, the Storm 8 can be paired with ENTTEC’s ‘1RU 19inch ear kit. Finally, with input support for sACN and Art-Net 1, 2, 3, and 8 DMX outputs, controlling lighting fixtures and digital strips has never been easier than with this smart and compact Ethernet DMX converter.
Features
Easy to setup
With a web-browser-based settings page, Storm 8 is relatively easy to set up and use. Connect and configure in your favorite browser.
8 Universe or 4096 DMX channels
Supports a maximum of 4096 DMX channels, thanks to 8 DMX universe support.
Merging support
Supports either LTP or HTP Merging (up to 2 sources). Use another source, just to test your setup, and revert back to the master source when required. All standard on Storm 8.
Easy Cabling
Easier and lower cabling costs using standard RJ45 outputs. Although XLR connectors are widely used in the entertainment world, when your project isn’t traveling the world on a regular basis, RJ45s connectors offer the best price/performance ratio. Using standard shielded CAT5 cable to connect your whole system also helps keep the cost per port down. We use the standard ANSI E1.27-2 specified RJ45 pinout to make sure most equipment connections will be simple.
Multi-Protocol Support
Supports Art-Net 1/2/3, sACN, and ESP. Ready for any of these network sources. Simply change the required protocol from the Setting page.
Compact yet powerful
Compact hardware that consists of: 8 DMX (RJ45) data output ports, an IEC power connector,  and one 10/100 Ethercon RJ45 Ethernet. Storm 8 fits into a robust metal 9.5 inch 1 Unit rack. Or two units can be mounted side by side  to form a standard 19 inch rack. Also has an, in-built power supply (input 90 to 260V AC), so can be used worldwide.
