If you're searching for a lighting fixture that truly stands out, something bold enough to deliver a powerful, signature effect that grabs attention, the Robe TetraX™ is your answer. Engineered to provide that elusive X factor, the TetraX™ is a visually spectacular evolution of the popular Tetra1™, enhanced with dynamic pan movement and continuous high-speed rotation. This new feature dramatically expands the creative possibilities for sweeping stage and aerial effects, making it a standout tool for lighting designers looking to push boundaries.
The TetraX™ delivers a precise, ultra-tight 4° beam from each of its nine evenly spaced RGBW pixels. These beams blend into a striking, cohesive sheet of light, perfect for curtain effects or cutting through the atmosphere with clean, defined lines. Its motorised 11:1 zoom extends from 4° to 45°, producing soft washes or intense, focused beams with fluid transitions. Enhancing its visual output further, the TetraX™ includes three of Robe’s patented MCFE™ (Multi-Coloured Flower Effects), which project vivid, multicolour spikes of light with adjustable rotation speeds and directions, ideal for compelling in-air animations.
Beyond its optical capabilities, the TetraX™ offers extensive colour control, with both RGBW and CMY colour mixing, variable CCT from 2,700K to 8,000K, and tungsten emulation modes for authentic red-shifted warm whites. Its integrated DataSwatch™ library features 237 pre-programmed colours and tones, including frequently used white points. Robe’s L3™ dimming technology ensures ultra-smooth 18-bit dimming, with a seamless fade to black for refined control in theatrical settings.
Connectivity is simplified with the built-in Epass™ Ethernet switch, maintaining network integrity even during power loss. The fixture supports multiple protocols including sACN, Art-Net, Kling-Net, and DMX, and can be controlled via media servers or through its internal effects engine. Onboard programming is accessible via a QVGA touchscreen with battery backup and auto-orientation.
At the core of the TetraX™ is a powerful light source: nine 40W RGBW LED multichips delivering up to 5,300 lumens. With a minimum LED lifespan of 50,000 hours and efficient thermal management, the fixture maintains performance in demanding environments. Mechanically, the fixture features 540° pan with continuous rotation, 191° tilt, and 16-bit movement resolution, giving lighting professionals the precision and speed they need for complex scenes.
Powering the TetraX™ is a 100–240V auto-ranging electronic power supply with a maximum consumption of 320W. It features Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 in/out connectors, locking 5-pin XLRs for DMX and RDM, and RJ45 Ethernet ports for networked control. Measuring 368 mm in height, 512 mm in width, and 205 mm in depth, and weighing 15.7 kg, the fixture is compact yet solid, with IP20 protection and universal mounting options including two Omega brackets.
Designed to handle both touring and fixed installations, the Robe TetraX™ is the ultimate choice for lighting professionals who demand speed, control, colour precision, and immersive visual impact.
