Chauvet Professional Unveils Nexus Aw 7x7 Warm White 2,800K Narrow-Beam LED Display

	Chauvet Professional's Nexus Aw 7x7 warm white LED panel

Chauvet Professional has added the Nexus Aw 7x7, a versatile warm white LED panel, to its Parnelli Award-winning series of Nexus LED displays. Emitting bright, narrow beams from 49 powerful 3W 2,800K CREE LEDs, the Nexus Aw 7x7 offers the flexibility to generate high-impact aerial effects, produce warm white washes, project outward as an audience blinder, or create text and animated graphics displays.

Designed for use in arrays, Nexus Aw 7x7 panels feature a quick rigging system with integrated alignment and load-rated interlocking hardware for easy construction of displays of all sizes. This adaptability in both configuration and function makes Nexus Aw 7x7 panels ideal for a variety of applications -- from live events, touring and stage productions, to nightclubs and entertainment venues, to broadcast/studio lighting.

Using one of several control options -- Kling-Net, Art-Net (49 channel), or DMX (five or 49 channel) protocol -- operators can easily create pixel mapping displays. A smooth dimming curve and built-in automated programs are among the other tools that designers will value in this brand-new member of the Chauvet Professional Nexus series, which is part of the subgroup of Nexus Affinity system-building LED panels.

"Our initial Nexus series offering, the Nexus 4x4, won the 2013 Parnelli Award for Indispensable Technology, and we were thrilled and honored to see it get recognized for the exceptional quality and performance that we worked so hard to attain," said Ford Sellers, senior product manager for Chauvet Professional. "Now with the new Nexus Aw 7x7, we've brought award-winning Nexus standards of excellence to a warm-white narrow-beam LED panel, which is virtually limitless in its design versatility and applications."

Equipped with a built-in power supply, three- and five-pin DMX connectors, Neutrik etherCON input and output, and Neutrik powerCON power input and output, Nexus Aw 7x7 panels' flexibility and ease of assembly makes them a perfect fit for the rental market. An optional Affinity rig kit is available to further simplify the building of large displays, allowing 10-16 panels to be hung vertically, compared to four panels without the kit. CE and MET certifications ensure that Nexus Aw 7x7 panels meet safety standards of all types of venues.

Compactly designed, each panel measures 19.7" x 19.7" x 3.5" (500 x 500 x 90mm) and weighs 17.2lb (7.8kg). The panels have a seven-degree beam angle and 12-degree field angle, and produce 9,400 lux at five meters. Energy-efficient and low-maintenance, their LEDs are rated at 50,000 hours.
