The DS5P is a 1 In 5 out splitter PCB with optional on board power supply that will accept a DMX 512 input from any DMX generating device such as a DMX lighting board or PC based DMX device and creates 5 additional outputs (i.e. split, distribute, buffer, amplify, boost) that will each drive up to 32 devices. The DS5 has the option of an onboard power supply, just connect 120VAC and a DMX signal and get 5 DMX outputs. Gang additional DS5 PCBs to create as many outputs as needed. Add DMX outputs to existing installations or DIY projects.
The DS5 Splitter also offers **True Fault input LED indication. Choose the Chipset Upgrade for *TVS (Transient Voltage Suppression) protection on each output.

*TVS – A terminated and open condition is considered an unstable state, the catalog/active indication LED could be either full on or full off. Data traffic is indicated by partially on or flickering illumination.
**TRUE FAULT – This IC features a fail-safe circuitry, which guarantees a logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs are open or shorted. This means that the receiver output will be a logic high if all transmitters on a terminated bus are disabled (high impedance).
Also Note – the 5 outputs are separately driven and electronically isolated, not “Transient Voltage Suppressed” isolated from each other unless the CHIPSET UPGRADE is selected.
