versaSplit duo - 2 variants

versaSplit duo is a modular 8-output DMX512/RDM optosplitter in 1RU 19″ rack mount format. The outputs are ground referenced using robust drivers with advanced protection. Output connectors are XLR5 or XLR8 (Ethercon).

The product has 2 input module slots, A and B. Each of the 8 outputs is allocated to either the A or B input module using the switch located next to each output.

The input modules are available in 5 variations that determine the product function(s):

1. Choose the XLR5 or XRJ45 input module(s) for a DMX512 splitter / fixer with RDM support.

2. Choose the ETHB input module for a gateway capable of handling Art-Net (all versions up to Art-Net 4) and sACN.

3. Choose the CRMX input module for a wireless DMX splitter.

4. Choose the blank panel that can be used to blank off one of the inputs.

Please note, modules need to be purchased separately.

Modules

The versaSplit DMX/RDM input module adds DMX input capability to the entire versaSplit range. It provides an isolated input and loop-through using 5-pin XLR connectors, or via an RJ45 Ethercon connector, depending on the chosen variant. The module also provides a split – fix switch which allows out-of-spec timing to be corrected and unusual DMX packets or RDM to be removed.

The versaSplit CRMX input module adds wireless DMX input capability to the entire versaSplit range. RDM is not currently supported. It is supplied complete with an antenna and fully supports the Lumen Radio CRMX wireless DMX protocol.

The versaSplit Ethernet B input module adds Art-Net 4 and sACN input capability to the entire versaSplit range.

Data input is via a Neutrik Ethercon. All network configuration can be done via a browser or using DMX-Workshop.

The blank panel can be used to blank off one of the inputs to versaSplit duo.
