Very nice

The splitter is absolutely amazing, being a person who uses one universe, but have fixtures on multiple bars, this helps a lot to split that DMX signal, and know that the signal is strong and useable.

One down side is that the splitter doesn't have RDM, but it doesn't really surprise me at the price point.

Overall, im really happy with it, and for sure be getting more.

Cheap DMX Splitter, missing rear DMX in

I like this splitter, it does what it should do. Am quite dissapointed that it does not have rear port for DMX in, but that i did know in advance. Its installed in theatre rack to send signals to DMX lights above theatre stage, you can see via LEDs when signal is beeing transmitted. So far no complaints.

effective DMX splitter

has worked without any difficulty for a few years now, being quite robust and easy to use.

the only issue, one of the indicator leds on the front panel stopped working after about 2 years of regular gig use.

Solid Product, simple to set up and use

Solid, well built product that stands out in the rack, both because its grey and the leds are super bright and clear

Would recommend building into a rack mount flightcase for added protection and to help keep them in one place

Does the job!

Does the job, solid housing, no issues, and price friendly. No reason to buy anything more expensive unless you really want to have each output opto isolated. This one has only opto isolation between input (with thru) and all outputs. Two transformers inside. Have couple to support the rigs and no failure so far.

no more dmx problems

Excellent dmx booster and splitter. If you manage several fixtures and moving heads you'll find here a great help not to overrun dmx cable lenghts and loss of signal.

Does what it says on the tin.

Bought for a school show - does precisely what it says on the tin. Clear bright LED's on front to show signal connections. More than I needed because I'm only using the 3 pin sockets.

No complaints at all.

Great quality & a sensable price

We really like these DMX splitters as we can rack mount them, so we know when we need to use them they aren't going to have been damaged & let us down, clear easy to suss front panel with quality LEDs so you can see from a distance what going on, Top product !

Great unit and good value

This is a very good DMX splitter. Its got a solid build quality, 3 & 5 pin DMX in & out, nice clear LEDs on the front of the unit to indicate a DMX signal and its pretty cheap compared to other models. Would definitely recommend.

Showtec DB-1-8 DMX

Well worth having if you're running a mixture of fixtures (Par, Moving Heads,etc)

Eliminates DMX crosstalk/errors and cleans up stage cabling!
