PDC-GEN5

PDC-GEN5

Power-Data Converter Generation 5

Designed for lighting circuits and operating on the all-new proprietary COLOR-STREAM® platform, PDC-G5 is the latest generation GVA Power-Data Converter. PDC-G5 converts industry standard communication protocols such as Art-Net 4, sACN, DMX-512A, DALI / DALI 2 or 0~10V to GVA's COLOR-STREAM® protocol, seamlessly integrating other GVA technologies and outputting unified power-data leader cables for advanced lighting systems.

KEY FEATURES

  • Enables COLOR-STREAM® platform for high speed communication (6.25 Mbps), up to 200 frames per second refresh rate and 12-bit dimming resolution @ 40 kHz dimming frequency
  • COLOR-STREAM® data is fully galvanically isolated from external communication network and protected from power cross
  • Remote monitoring of temperature inside PDC-G5 and each connected luminaire, relative humidity inside PDC-G5, current per power output
