ETC announces the latest addition to Hog hardware, the HPU+. This new and improved hybrid processor can act either as a rack-mounted console or as a DMX Processor connected to another Hog family console product.
A simplified mechanical design makes the HPU+ easier to service and more road-ready than ever before. The IO on the rear panel has also been updated to align with new Hog consoles, including etherCON connectors, opticalCON Duo fiber optic connectivity, a built in LTC/SMPTE connection, and TRUE1 TOP power input.
“HPU+ brings all the power of a Hog console to those spaces that don’t truly need a permanent hardware front-panel solution, like cruise ships and theme parks,” says Tania Lesage, Market Manager at ETC. “But at the same time, HPU+ can expand existing Hog systems with an additional 64 universes of control. It really is a powerful tool.”
While original HPU units move into legacy, they will continue to function and receive software updates.
Like other Hog family products, HPU+ is backed by a five-year warranty. Original HPU units purchased in 2026 are covered by the same warranty.
