Swisson XSH-3RR-1P4 Hybrid RDM Splitter (Rack, XLR3)

3-Pin RDM & PowerCon Hybrid Splitter - Rack Mount Style

The XSH Hybrid Splitter allows for distributing power and a DMX signal within one single unit.

The XSH features a powerCon 20A input and an XLR input and four pairs of powerCon 20A and XLR outputs. This combination comes especially handy with modern DMX setups, where so called 'hybrid cables' with XLR and powerCon connectors are frequently used.

The XSH comes with a built-in amp meter which makes it a breeze to keep track of the amount of power that is consumed, allowing its user to take action before the cables are operated at their limits. With the RDM option it is also possible to remotely monitor the current draw.

What is RDM?
RDM (Remote Device Management) is an extension of the DMX512 protocol for the monitoring and configuration of DMX512 equipment. It runs concurrently with the DMX512 over the same cable. DMX addresses, device profiles and other parameters can be set remotely by an RDM capable light controller.

Changing the DMX address of a fixture with the ladder is not necessary anymore. Unlike DMX, RDM is a bidirectional protocol. RDM needs a splitter which can handle the bidirectional communication.
