Carging & Connecting the Astera PowerBox:
• Sockets
The top side of Titan PowerBox has Powercon in+out sockets as well as DMX in+out and an Ethernet socket for Artnet and sACN. On its side are 10 sockets for Titan Power/Data Combination Cables to connect up to 10 tubes.

• Charge in Case
The Titan PowerBox is designed to charge tubes in their cases with short power cables. In addition, the PowerBox can be taken out of the case and used for longer installations. For this, additional Titan Power/Data Combination Cables are required.

• How to wire
Titan PowerBox is designed to supply up to 10 tubes with power and data. To achive this, take the PowerBox out of the Charging Case, connect a Powercon cable and either DMX, Artnet or sACN. Use the optionally available Titan Power/Data combination cable to connect a tube.

• Multiple Universes
Each PowerBox can control 1 DMX universe which is 10 Titan Tubes with 16 pixels each in RGB mode (3 channels per pixel). If you need more channels, e.g. because you are using 7 channels per pixel you can add a DataLink for universe 2. Power can be taken from the PowerBox and passed through DataLink.

• Titan Power/Data Combination Cable
This hybrid cable can deliver 24 VDC of power as well as DMX data to the tubes. It is available in 3 lengths: 5m, 10m, 15m (15’, 30’, 45’).

It uses an 135° connector on one end which is designed so the tubes can be mounted at a wall with TubeHolders.

• Power/Data Combination Cable
An alternative hybrid cable can deliver 24 VDC of power as well as DMX data to the lights. It is available in 4 lengths: 200mm, 5m, 10m, 15m (15’, 30’, 45’, 8").

Unlike the Titan Power/Data Combination Cable, it has watertight 90° connectors on both ends, which match newer models such as PixelBrick and HydraPanel. The cable is compatible with Titan Tube and Helios Tube, but since IP65 is not supported and the connector is more bulky, we recommend the Titan Power/Data Combination Cable.
