Product Description
Overview
The KUPO DP-81II is a rack-mount DMX splitter panel that distributes one DMX-512 input to eight output lines. It keeps DMX routing organized in a rack, making it useful for theatres, studios, event racks, and installations where long daisy-chain runs are not the cleanest answer.
Why It Matters
A splitter is about signal layout, not drama. DP-81II gives the control system eight clearly defined 5-pin XLR outputs from one input, helping technicians route fixture branches, dimmer rooms, and stage positions without turning the rack into a patch of inline boxes.
Key Features
- One 5-pin XLR female input distributes DMX to eight 5-pin XLR male outputs
- Supports DMX-512 / 1990 control signal distribution
- Rack-mount panel format keeps signal routing organized in fixed or touring systems
- 482 x 44 x 113 mm body fits standard 19" rack workflows
- Useful for reducing long daisy-chain dependency across fixture or dimmer branches
Applications
Use it for DMX distribution in theatres, studios, touring racks, fixed installations, dimmer-room feeds, and event systems that need multiple controlled output branches.
Compatibility
Designed for DMX-512 / 1990 signal routing with one 5-pin XLR female input and eight 5-pin XLR male outputs.
