PowerGate Arma

A Rugged Powerline-to-DMX Converter Built for Any Environment
Data Sheet

Elevate your lighting control with the PowerGate Arma, a waterproof HomePlug powerline-to-DMX converter designed for seamless performance in any setting—indoors or out. Whether you’re rigging a theater stage, powering an outdoor festival, or managing a complex installation, this device delivers reliability, efficiency, and advanced technology to keep your lighting network in sync.

Advanced Protocol Support for Seamless Integration
The PowerGate Arma adapts to any lighting configuration with broad protocol compatibility: DMX512, ArtNet (versions 1–4), sACN (Draft and Release), KiNet (v1 and v2), RDM (ANSI E1.20), and RTTrPL. It also supports PWRDMX, a proprietary powerline protocol, enabling signal transmission over power lines up to 400 meters (depending on conditions) or via Ethernet—an ideal solution for large venues or distributed setups.

Reliable Power and Connectivity
Power the unit directly from 110/220 V AC mains (up to 305 V), eliminating the need for external adapters. A 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port supports ArtNet or sACN networking, connecting lighting fixtures and controllers into a unified system—essential for efficient stage workflows.

Effortless Configuration
Tailor the PowerGate Arma to your needs using a web interface, the ArtGate Setting utility, ArtNet-compatible software, or the ARISTO platform. Adjust DMX universes, merge settings, or monitor RDM feedback with ease, ensuring fast setup and minimal downtime.

Engineered for Durability
Designed for demanding environments, the PowerGate Arma’s IP65-rated duralumin case protects against dust, moisture, and temperature extremes. Mount it on trusses, walls, or brackets, and rely on its fanless cooling design to perform without compromise in live event conditions.
