Elation’s RDMX6S 6-way RDM/DMX data splitter promises to be useful in maintaining proper data levels over long runs or several runs of RDM or DMX signal.

RDM E1.20 compliant, the RDMX6S features opto-isolated DMX output ports with DMX loop through port with built-in termination. It houses 5pin XLR input, a 5pin XLR thru output, (6) 5pin XLR outputs and powerCON In connection.
