Color Kinetics RDM-6 - 6-Port DMX/RDM Splitter with 6 x 3-Pin Terminal Outputs in Black Finish [303-000003-00]

The Color Kinetics RDM-6 (Model # 303-000003-00) is a versatile 6-port DMX/RDM splitter that allows for the expansion of your DMX control system. Designed to provide reliable distribution of both DMX and RDM signals, the RDM-6 is an essential tool for controlling large lighting installations, particularly when managing multiple devices or addressing a significant number of fixtures. This splitter supports bi-directional communication, enabling discovery, addressing, and DMX control of Color Kinetics and Vaya products, making it an ideal solution for projects requiring the control of up to 192 devices (32 devices per port x 6 ports).

The RDM-6 is equipped with six separate output channels, allowing you to split an incoming DMX/RDM signal and distribute it across multiple devices. Each output port is electronically isolated from the input and RDM-through port, which ensures minimal signal interference and prevents any potential damage. Additionally, the splitter features independent output drivers on each port, which boosts the DMX/RDM signal to ensure optimal signal integrity and performance across all connected devices.

One of the key benefits of the RDM-6 is its compatibility with both DMX and RDM systems. It automatically switches between DMX and RDM modes, making it ideal for Vaya auto-discovery, which simplifies the setup and configuration process. The RDM-6 can be mounted either on a surface or on a DIN rail, providing flexibility in installation. Its polycarbonate housing ensures durability, while the unit's compact dimensions (7.7 x 4.1 x 0.83 inches) and lightweight design (8.8 oz) make it easy to integrate into any system.

For ease of installation, the RDM-6 features two-piece compression screw terminals, which allow for secure connections to the DMX/RDM input and six 3-pin terminal output ports. The unit operates with a DC 12-24V input, and the necessary wires for the terminal connector are included. Its low power consumption (4.5 W max) ensures energy efficiency, making it an excellent choice for both small and large-scale lighting systems.
