Stella 1800m daisy-chained
Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2021 10:42 am
Hi, I have a project where I place DMX fixtures around a fortress. The outer length of the fortress walls is ~1.8km.
The idea is to have a centralized RACK system that has 3x AURA32 inside, and from there I daisy-chain STELLA-s.
There will be around 40 STELLA-s, and the distance between them is ranging from 30m up to 100m, where the majority of them will be at the distance of ~100m. So it's like this: RACK -> STELLA <- 100m -> STELLA <-100m -> STELLA....40 times
The question is, can a system like that work? Can I daisy-chain at such a long-distance?
Also is it a better option to connect 10 STELLA-s to one AURA, and have a total of 4 AURAs at that time.
Those AURAS would be split each for 1/4th of the fortress, and connected together with an ethernet switch. What is the max distance from one AURA to the first STELLA in line?
