The Martin Lighting P3 PowerPort 1500 is a dedicated power and data distribution unit engineered for professional LED video installations using the Martin Creative LED Video fixture range. It is the correct choice for lighting designers, systems integrators, and touring production teams who need to consolidate 48V DC power delivery and DMX/RDM signal distribution into a single, compact device. The hybrid power/data output port eliminates the need for separate data runs to each fixture, reducing cable count and simplifying system layout on complex rigs.

The unit's mounting flexibility sets it apart from generic power supplies in this category. A single chassis can be rack-mounted in a standard 19-inch rack in single or dual configuration, hung vertically or horizontally on truss using half-coupler hardware, or surface-mounted to a wall, making it equally at home in a permanent architectural install or a touring production environment. The steel housing carries an IP 20 rating suitable for controlled indoor environments, and temperature-regulated forced-air cooling keeps noise low during extended operation.

The built-in opto-isolated DMX/RDM splitter and THRU port enable clean daisy-chaining between units without signal degradation, while RDM support allows addressing and configuration of connected fixtures without returning to the console. A local test button and status LEDs for power output and data activity give technicians immediate on-unit feedback during system check and troubleshooting, reducing setup time in time-critical production scenarios.
