No, it is basically a hardware dongle that let you run Lightwave without having a Video Toaster installed. It also let it run in PAL land and on RTG screens.
Edit: they had a bit of a spat with Newtek. Newtek would patch Lightwave so Lightrave wouldn't work, Warm & Fuzzy would patch Lightrave, etc. Warm & Fuzzy gave up around Lightwave 3.5 - I know they did 3.1 but my memory isn't sure of 3.5. The biggest problem with Lightrave is that while it would let you run Lightwave without a Toaster, you still had to buy the full Video Toaster package to get the Lightwave software. That wasn't a problem once Newtek released the standalone 4.0
