Duo-Split RDM is a new 2-input, 8-output DMX and RDM Splitter from Artistic Licence Engineering. Housed in a 19” 1U rack enclosure, Duo-Split distributes DMX and RDM using the same market-leading DMX Splitter technology employed across Artistic Licence’s full Splitter Range.Duo-Split not only has two separate inputs, but each input can be independently switched to a ‘fixer’ mode to remove RDM traffic being sent to the outputs by removing non zero start code packets. In fixer mode it will also re-time the DMX packets to overcome any speed compatibility issues.
Duo-Split RDM can be used as a single universe splitter, a two universe spliter and a single universe splitter with half the outputs in fixer mode.
Each of Duo-Split RDM’s eight buffered outputs can be individually selected to either of its two independent isolated inputs. Each input in turn can be individually set to ‘splitter’ or ‘fixer’ mode to give the user maximum flexibility.
This flexibility makes it very useful for rental companies whose projects and requirements can vary considerably.
Duo-Split offers a choice of 1 or 2 universes and masters the notoriously tricky process of connecting RDM devices seamlessly.
Its small 1U footprint also makes it ideal for all entertainment and architectural applications since it combines two splitters into one box, especially valuable when space is at a premium.
Duo-Split’s RDM compliance renders it fully future-proof and its reliable cross-manufacturer support has been confirmed by numerous successful RDM Plugfest tests using multiple manufacturers’ products.
Duo-Split RDM was first launched at PLASA Focus 2012 and it forms part of the Splitter range, alongside Rail-Split RDM, Rack-Split RDM and Iso-Split RDM amongst others. Together these are just some of the ‘building blocks’ that form Artistic Licence Engineering’s extensive control and data distribution range.
