The Splitter Selective Pro is a professional-grade 1U rackmount DMX512 splitter and booster that combines robust construction with flexible signal management. It operates as a dual-channel device supporting full RDM protocol compliance, enabling both standard and remote device management in professional lighting networks. Each output port allows manual configuration of its signal source, giving users precise control over routing and redundancy across complex systems. Built into a rugged IP44-rated metal enclosure, the Splitter Selective Pro provides a reliable backbone for demanding lighting applications in theaters, broadcast environments, live venues, and architectural installations where uninterrupted DMX distribution is critical.
The unit’s design addresses the most common challenges in large DMX networks. For mission-critical installations, it acts as a stable and fault-tolerant DMX router, maintaining continuous operation even under unstable electrical conditions. Every output is galvanically isolated at 5000 V to prevent interference, short circuits, or signal degradation, while built-in TVS diode surge protection shields against voltage spikes and transient events. This ensures operational stability across diverse environments, from controlled indoor studios to challenging field setups. Manual mode selection and intelligent LED indicators simplify configuration and signal monitoring, while the device’s zero-latency processing guarantees precise synchronization across all connected equipment.
Connectivity and control flexibility are central to the Splitter Selective Pro’s design. The unit includes two DMX Thru ports (A and B) for daisy-chaining or extending existing networks, along with ten outputs in Auto mode or nine in DUO mode, depending on routing configuration. Each output can independently select between Input A or Input B through dedicated toggle switches, enabling customized signal distribution per channel. This per-output routing capability introduces redundancy at the channel level, allowing automatic failover DMX backup for each output if the primary signal is lost. The splitter supports up to thirty-two connected devices per output, ensuring robust performance across extensive lighting systems. Both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR configurations are available, allowing seamless integration into existing infrastructures, while RDM functionality can be enabled or disabled independently for each input via a rear-panel switch.
Constructed from durable metal, the Splitter Selective Pro fits standard 19-inch racks and occupies a compact 1U form factor, measuring 482 × 44 × 110 mm and weighing 1.2 kg. The IP44-rated housing protects internal components from splashes and dust, while its passive cooling system ensures stable operation without the need for external fans or ventilation. The unit is rated for ambient temperatures from 0°C to +60°C and up to 95% relative humidity, making it suitable for continuous use in professional environments. Its design eliminates external control buttons to prevent accidental adjustments or damage during transport or live operation. The unit ships with a mounting kit for easy rack installation.
The splitter operates on both AC and DC power, supporting a wide input range of 100–277 V AC at 50/60 Hz or 9–36 V DC, with a maximum consumption of only 5 W. Power is supplied through a PowerCON True1 connector, ensuring a secure and professional-grade connection. Internal circuitry is protected by a 0.5 A fuse, maintaining operational safety up to 305 V without risk to connected equipment.
The Splitter Selective Pro transmits data using the DMX512 and RDM (ANSI E1.20) protocols at a refresh rate of 44 Hz. It offers flexible single- and dual-channel modes—one input to ten outputs or two inputs to nine outputs—depending on configuration requirements. Two male XLR connectors handle input, while eleven female XLR connectors manage output, ensuring consistent signal distribution across devices. The front-panel LED indicators provide clear visual feedback for both DMX and RDM signals, allowing quick verification of operational status.
For system integrators, the Splitter Selective Pro represents a dependable, configurable tool for high-stakes installations where reliability and precision routing are mandatory—whether at major broadcast centers, international event venues, or government facilities. Rental companies benefit from its versatility, as its dual-mode operation and per-output routing adaptability accommodate a wide range of setups. With certifications including CE, RoHS, and EAC compliance, a 36-month warranty, and robust environmental resilience, the Splitter Selective Pro stands as a trusted solution for professional lighting network distribution where precision, safety, and durability are essential.
