The MADRIX STELLA 8 is the second-generation flagship of the STELLA range: an 8-port DIN-rail controller for DMX512 and RDM, built to handle high bandwidths in data-intensive lighting-control networks.

Each of the 8 ports can be freely set as an input or an output, so a single unit can act as an Art-Net or sACN node, a DMX-IN source, a booster, a merger, a splitter, or a protocol converter. Configuration is handled through a modern, mobile-friendly web interface with no additional software required.

With full RDM support as both controller and responder, plus Packet Multitasking that allows DMX and RDM to run simultaneously, STELLA 8 pairs naturally with MADRIX RADAR for 24/7 device monitoring. All RDM devices connected to STELLA 8 are unlocked in RADAR at no extra cost.
