This is a 4-way DMX booster with a 3-pin and 5-pin XLR input jack. This unit takes the incoming DMX
signal and splits the signal into four separate output channels. Each output channel and the input channel
are completely electronically isolated from each other, all four output channels have independent output
drivers to boost the DMX signal. In addition, a Link out/Terminate selector is used for secure linking when
you intend to terminate DMX signal.
