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

This adaptability in both configuration and function makes Nexus Aw 7×7 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 (5 or 49 channel) protocol – operators can easily create stunning pixel mapping displays, serving up the electrifying eye candy that’s become an essential element of productions and events of all types today.
