The Swisson XSR-5B-US is a 1-In/5-Out DMX/RDM splitter box, equipped with 5-pin XLR input/thru and 5-pin XLR output ports, designed to meet the needs of professional lighting environments. This splitter is part of the highly reliable Swisson XSR series, known for its ability to handle DMX and RDM signal processing with precision and consistency. The XSR-5B-US ensures that signals are cleanly distributed to all connected devices, making it ideal for both live events and permanent installations. Its sleek black-finished box design is discreet and sturdy, offering durability and ease of integration into a wide range of lighting setups.
One of the standout features of the XSR-5B-US is its "DMX only" mode, which filters out all non-DMX data to ensure a pure and uninterrupted DMX signal. This functionality is particularly useful in systems that do not require RDM data but need reliable DMX performance. However, when RDM data is present, the splitter is fully capable of detecting and processing it, thanks to its bidirectional communication functionality. This capability allows users to troubleshoot and monitor their lighting systems via an RDM controller, providing real-time insights into the installation's performance.
All five output ports on the XSR-5B-US are individually optically isolated, ensuring robust protection against transient overvoltage. This isolation helps to safeguard connected devices from electrical surges and reduces the risk of damage. Additionally, the splitter boosts and regenerates both DMX and RDM signals, reducing reflection problems and ensuring that the signal integrity remains intact, even over long cable runs. The XSR-5B-US also features a specially designed power supply, allowing for safe and reliable operation under harsh mains conditions, making it a dependable choice for high-pressure environments such as concerts, theaters, and live broadcasts.
The XSR-5B-US complies with industry standards such as ANSI E1.11 (DMX-512) and ANSI E1.20 (RDM), ensuring it is compatible with a wide range of professional lighting systems. It also features built-in line termination, which helps to maintain signal quality by preventing unwanted reflections that could disrupt signal flow. With its compact and durable design, the XSR-5B-US integrates seamlessly into any lighting setup, providing the high level of reliability, performance, and protection required by lighting professionals.
