32-output Art-Net controller
Not every project needs more universes. Many projects need more control over how the installation is distributed. That is where an Art-Net platform with 32 real physical outputs makes a practical difference.
With deskontroller LITE V3, you can distribute lines more cleanly, avoid unnecessary concentration and structure the project with more clarity from the start.
Why physical outputs matter, not just universe count
When talking about Art-Net controller capacity, the conversation usually goes straight to universes. But universes define how many channels you can move, not how you distribute them physically across the installation.
Each physical output is an independent data line. With fewer outputs and many pixels per line, the system becomes more concentrated: more pixels per run, more dependencies between zones, and more complexity to cable, document and maintain.
With 32 real physical outputs, you can structure the installation with more intent: separate zones clearly, distribute the load and resolve the cabling with more headroom. It is the difference between an installation that is planned with a clear structure and one that ends up being improvised.
Where 32 physical outputs show their value most clearly
Architecture and facade
Installations with many physically separate runs, floor-by-floor zones or distinct segments. More outputs let you assign each zone to its own line without forcing the system logic.
Stage, touring and live
Rigs with multiple elements, materials and positions. 32 outputs give room to structure each element independently and reassign lines without relying on a forced distribution.
Immersive spaces and installations
Projects with independently behaving zones, per-segment logic and often long deployment periods. A more granular output structure makes maintenance and technical documentation much cleaner.
Integrators and installers
In integration projects, a well-distributed installation from the hardware level is easier to hand over, document and support. Fewer dependencies between zones means fewer points of failure.
What deskontroller LITE V3 brings
- 32 real physical outputs available across every model in the range in normal output mode.
- 8 RJ45 connectors, normally with 4 outputs per connector: D1, D2, D3 and D4.
- Browser-based setup, without requiring proprietary controller software.
- Art-Net compatibility with the main control and mapping environments used in the industry.
- European manufacturer with in-house quality control and product traceability.
- 5-year warranty on deskontroller products and real technical support.
An architecture built for real installations
The 8 RJ45 design with 4 outputs per connector is not an arbitrary choice. It lets you run groups of lines to a distribution point using a single CAT6 UTP cable and continue from there to each strip or segment with the appropriate pixel cable.
That supports cleaner installations, with less unnecessary cabling and zone logic resolved at the hardware level from the start. The result is a system that is easier to understand, document, maintain and modify after handover.
Same 32-output platform, different capacities
32U · 64U
The same 32 physical outputs with lower total universe capacity. A strong base for smaller installations or projects where high FPS headroom matters more than total pixel count.
96U · 128U
A solid middle point in the range. More universes per output, more total pixel capacity, with the same 32-output architecture and the same setup and operating logic.
160U · 192U
Highest capacity of the platform. For projects with high pixel volume, many active zones and the need to drive everything from a single unit without compromising the output structure.
Same physical output layout, upgradeable model capacity
All deskontroller LITE V3 models keep the same output architecture in normal mode. What changes between models is the available universe capacity, the load that can be assigned per output and the FPS balance.
If your project grows later, models from 32U to 160U can be upgraded to a higher-capacity deskontroller LITE V3 model, up to 192U, by upgrade key and without replacing the hardware.
The upgrade increases the available universes and model capacity. The physical output layout remains the same, so the installation can keep the same distribution logic while gaining more capacity when needed.
The hardware warranty remains linked to the original purchase date of the unit.
Useful next steps
If this approach fits the way you distribute pixel load across outputs, these are the most useful paths to understand the controller, validate wiring, choose the right model, review Art-Net / SPI applications or compare the full range.

Capacity upgrade
If the project may grow later, review how to upgrade from 32U to higher-capacity models, up to 192U, without replacing the hardware.
Software, patch and Art-Net
If the question is not the physical output structure but the Art-Net sender, review the Art-Net to SPI page or the software setup guides.
Practical rule
When designing an Art-Net installation, do not look only at the total number of universes you need. Also think about how many physical lines you want available and how you want to distribute the project across them.
A controller with more physical outputs is not better only because of a higher number on the spec sheet. It is better because it gives you more room to make good installation decisions: separate zones properly, avoid concentration, simplify cabling and document the system with more clarity.
Once you know the approximate pixel count, installation type and whether you are working in RGB or RGBW, it becomes much easier to point you toward the most sensible model.
