Fully Isolated Bi-Directional DMX Hub

model: BIDI8
technical data sheet

The DMX Hub offers isolation and signal buffering for bi-directional communication on a single pair of wires using pins 2 and 3 of a traditional DMX512 data link. The hub differs from an opto-splitter in that any of the eight ports can receive data, with the seven remaining ports re-transmitting that data.

Each of the eight ports offers fully bi-directional optical isolation, fault protection to ±60V, and transient protection to ±15KV. The DMX hub is protocol independent, and currently supports equipment from High End Systems.

Other features include a universal power supply, optional terminal block connectors, gold plated XLR connectors (Neutrik), and a rugged tabletop, truss, or rack mountable enclosure.
