The Nanlite WS‑TB‑1 Transmitter Box is a compact wireless control hub that connects and synchronizes multiple Nanlite lights through the NANLINK app, delivering precise, scalable control for professional lighting setups in studio and on-location environments.
The Nanlite WS‑TB‑1 Transmitter Box is a compact and powerful wireless control hub designed to bring complete lighting control into a single, intuitive ecosystem. Developed for filmmakers, photographers, and lighting professionals, it acts as a central bridge between mobile devices and Nanlite fixtures, enabling seamless, real-time communication across entire lighting setups through the NANLINK app.
Operating on a stable 2.4GHz wireless signal, the WS‑TB‑1 eliminates the limitations of direct Bluetooth connections, allowing users to control compatible fixtures even if they do not have built-in Bluetooth. Through the NANLINK app on iOS or Android, users gain precise access to key lighting parameters such as color temperature, HSI values, dimming levels, and effects, while also being able to create and recall scenes, presets, and grouped lighting configurations for efficient and repeatable workflows.
The transmitter is engineered for scalability and can manage large lighting networks simultaneously, making it ideal for professional productions where multiple fixtures must be synchronized. This capability allows lighting setups to be controlled as a cohesive system, ensuring consistent output, perfectly timed effects, and streamlined operation on set.
Power performance is equally versatile, with an integrated rechargeable battery that provides up to 10 hours of continuous operation, supporting full-day production use without interruption. A USB‑C port enables convenient charging, firmware updates, and the option to power the unit via external sources such as power banks or AC adapters, ensuring uninterrupted functionality in both studio and on-location environments.
Despite its powerful capabilities, the WS‑TB‑1 maintains a compact and lightweight design, incorporating internal antennas that deliver a strong and reliable signal without increasing the device’s footprint. Practical mounting options including a 1/4"-20 thread, integrated belt clip, and hanging ring provide flexibility for attaching the transmitter to rigs, stands, or carrying it on set for quick adjustments.
Designed for broad compatibility, the WS‑TB‑1 works seamlessly with a wide range of Nanlite fixtures, including PavoTube, Forza, MixPanel, FS series, and more, unifying different lighting systems into a single control interface. This makes it an essential tool for managing modern lighting environments where efficiency, flexibility, and precision are key.
