What is the
ENTTEC PLink (Pixel Link)
system?
ENTTEC’s Pixel link protocol (or PLink) has been specially designed to extend your LED Pixel or Constant Voltage layout over long distances.
The PLink Injectors receive PLink protocol from a Pixelator family controller. Our protocol transmits up to 1024 channels (2 Universes) over a 300m distance using Cat5e/Cat6 cable from a Pixelator product to each PLink Injector. This means that each injector can control 340 RGB or 256 RGBW pixels. As a result, this satellite system provides great flexibility, and since the Pixelator processes all data conversion, the PLink injector is kept as compact as possible.
The Pixelator family is a group of products that converts sACN, Art-Net, ESP, and Kling-Net into PLink data. 2 Universes are then sent through either 8 (24 universes) or 24 (48 universes) RJ-45 ports with perfect synchronization across all eight of its outputs. Alternatively, use ENTTEC’s CVC4 to control Constant Voltage (CV) LED tape using the same method!
The PLink Injector has been engineered to work as part of an ENTTEC Pixelator Series set up to make it fast, easy and affordable for you to control LED pixel strips or pixel dots over long distances. The injector features an external DC power supply as well as high-power screw terminal connectors. In addition, they are ideal for custom shape pixel LED installations and their scalable design is perfect for large projects.
You can choose from the 5V or 12-24V options depending upon your layout. Then simply re-inject power from an external source, and you’re away!
Depending on your applications, our Plink Injector comes also in a rugged IP66-rated version, ideal for extreme weather conditions and outdoor installations.
