Studio 4 Channel DMX Decoder - 10A per ChannelManual 

Part number:

The Studio 4 Channel DMX Decoder - 10A per Channel is a four channel DMX decoder 
designed for professional high power applications. It is capable of handling 10 amperes per 
channel with all channels driven, meaning up to 480/960W at 12/24V. These decoders are 
switchable for standard 8-bit or high resolution 16-bit operation. The DMX-4-5000-3-10A 
interface includes two RJ45 ports and two 3-pin DMX ports, one each for in and out. The DMX-
4-5000-5-10A substitutes 5-pin DMX ports in place of the 3-pin DMX ports. Both versions have 
top-mounted DIP switches for setting the starting DMX address, without needing to apply 
power. Both decoders have built-in DMX terminations, in addition to a 5kHz PWM frequency to 
avoid flicker when used for video recording. 
 

Features 

 

 

High 4x10A power rating supports large installations up to 480/960W at 12/24V. 

 

Works with 12V and 24V LED lights. 

 

Output frequency is 5,000 Hz. Great for shooting TV shows or movies using high-speed 
iris cameras because the camera won't see any flicker. We recommend these fast decoders 
for any lighting that may be featured on camera.  

 

Switchable between 8-bit and 16-bit operation using the front toggle. 

 

Top mounted mechanical DIP switches for easy access and setting the DMX address 
without power. 

 

Built-in switchable DMX termination. 

 

RJ45 and available 3-pin or 5-pin DMX ports for multiple connectivity options. 

 

Rugged chassis with integrated mounting tab
