Used Chauvet NEXUS series

The Chauvet NEXUS series is a range of LED projection panels designed for stage blinder and pixel-mapping applications in live production. Models within the range project narrow beams of light, support individual pixel control and can generate text, animated graphics and wash effects. Each panel shares a 0.5 x 0.5 m footprint and built-in DMX-triggered effects, making the series suited to flexible stage and event setups.

Three distinct configurations appear in the series. The NEXUS 4x4 uses RGB COB LEDs for colour wash and pixel-mapping. The NEXUS Aw 7x7 carries 49 warm white LEDs running at 2800 K for narrow beam projection with a rich warm tone. The NEXUS Aq 5x5 features 25 RGBW LEDs, also supporting narrow beam output, pixel mapping and animated graphic creation. All three include a built-in power supply and smooth dimming.

Every panel in the NEXUS series supports Kling-Net, Art-Net and DMX control, with individual pixel-mapping capability across all three protocols. Connectivity is handled through Neutrik powerCON for power, Neutrik etherCON for network data, and both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR DMX connectors, providing compatibility with a wide range of control systems and setups without the need for additional adapters.

The NEXUS series is made by Chauvet, an American entertainment lighting company founded in 1990 and headquartered in Florida, which designs LED stage and effect lighting across several brands serving touring, theatrical, club and event markets. The NEXUS panels sit within its professional stage category, focusing on modular pixel-mapping blinder applications where scalable array building and multi-protocol control are priorities.

Confirm which specific model you are buying, since the 4x4, Aw 7x7 and Aq 5x5 differ in LED type and count. Check that all pixels illuminate evenly, the integrated locks are undamaged for array linking, and that Neutrik connectors show no corrosion. Verify control modes function correctly.
