At NAB2007, FiberPlex Inc. will introduce its new LightViper DMX4 System lighting control components, which are designed to work with the LightViper fiber-optic audio "snake" systems.
The DMX4 System consists of two units: the DMX4-i input unit and a DMX4-o output device. Both components will accept four independent lines of DMX control. The DMX4-i has four independent 3-pin and 5-pin XLR-type DMX inputs while the DMX4-o has independent 3-pin and 5-pin XLR-type DMX outputs. Each unit features an RJ45 connector on both the front and rear to connect with the RJ45 control circuit connector on the LightViper system.
The company will also highlight its FOM line of modular fiber-optic card module components, also for LightViper snake systems. The new components offer compliance for interfacing computer networks as well as telephony applications where secure communications or long cable runs are a major consideration. Currently four FOM card modules available. All FOM card modules are designed to mount in the RMC-5000 chassis, which can hold up to 16 FOM modules plus two power supplies (main and redundant).
Also on hand will be the new LightViper VIM-MY32 mini-YGDAI interface components, designed to allow users of Yamaha digital audio production consoles to connect direct via fiber to the LightViper snake system. A pair of plug-in VIM-MY32 card modules will handle 32 audio sends and eight returns (24-bit/48 kHz digital audio) via LightViper's fiber-optic digital audio cable. By adding an additional VIM-MY32 card set, the Yamaha PM5D console can operate with 64 sends and 16 fiber-optic returns.
FiberPlex will also demo the new LightViper YamMon software program, designed to allow users of non-Yamaha audio production consoles to be able to remotely control Yamaha's AD8HR digital microphone preamplifiers from a laptop computer.
FiberPlex Inc. will be in booth N6534.
