Product Overview
Use it as a backup to protect your show, a remote programming station, or as a standalone controller for automated or long-running productions, ETC's Apex Processor gives 24K output, expanded flexibility and security to your lighting control system. It is easily rack-mountable to control, monitor and interact directly using the built-in haptic touchscreen straight from your equipment rack, or use the included feet and build your own desktop remote workstation with use of USB-connectable devices (sold separately). The Apex Processor has the same powerful processing as the Apex consoles and network connections through four Gigabit Ethernet and two SFP+ ports.
