Description
Cameo SB 6 Dual - Professional DMX Signal Splitter and Booster The Cameo SB 6 Dual is a technologically advanced DMX signal splitter and booster, designed with professional stage, studio, and lighting installation applications of varying complexity in mind. This 19" / 1U format device provides a reliable and efficient solution for DMX network configuration, enabling the distribution of control signals to multiple lighting fixtures simultaneously without worrying about signal degradation or electrical interference. Thanks to its thoughtful design and high-quality components, the Cameo SB 6 Dual is suitable for both permanent installations in clubs and theaters, as well as mobile lighting systems used during concerts and outdoor events. Product Features The DMX signal splitter and booster with six galvanically isolated outputs is a key advantage of this device. The Cameo SB 6 Dual amplifies the input DMX signal and distributes it to six independent outputs, allowing for the connection of multiple lighting fixtures without the risk of signal degradation. Two parallel inputs (XLR 3-pin and 5-pin) along with two THRU outputs ensure full flexibility in chain configuration and facilitate the easy networking of multiple devices. The front panel is equipped with bright LED indicators showing the power status and DMX signal presence for each of the six channels, enabling quick diagnostics of the entire lighting system's operational state. The switchable 120-ohm terminating resistor on the THRU output allows for precise line impedance matching, while the power switch located on the rear panel completes the device's functionality. Reliable Signal Distribution for Your Lighting In professional lighting systems, the reliability of DMX signal transmission is paramount. The Cameo SB 6 Dual is designed to meet even the most demanding applications. Thanks to the galvanic isolation of the outputs, the device effectively eliminates problems associated with ground loops and electromagnetic interference, which can negatively affect stage lighting performance. The input signal is amplified and regenerated, allowing for long cable runs without loss of transmission quality. The device can be directly connected to a DMX console or other control devices, making it a universal tool in any lighting installation. The switchable 120-ohm terminating resistor on the THRU output allows for precise matching of the transmission line impedance, which is particularly important in extensive DMX networks. This solution helps avoid signal reflections and ensures stable operation of all connected devices. The power switch on the rear panel completes the feature set, providing full control over the device's operation. Moreover, the ability to mount rack handles on the rear panel enables 180-degree rotated mounting, significantly simplifying access to all ports and streamlining cable management in rack cabinets with limited space. The LEDs on the front panel are not just an aesthetic element but primarily a practical diagnostic tool. Six power LEDs and six signal LEDs allow for easy verification of whether each channel is receiving the correct DMX signal and whether the device is powered. This is an extremely useful feature during event preparation when time for configuration and testing is limited. With this solution, a lighting technician can quickly locate and resolve any transmission issues.
