ADJ RDM800 RDM XS8 DMX and RDM Data Splitter

Distribute and Manage DMX Data with the ADJ RDM800 RDM XS8 DMX and RDM Data Splitter

The ADJ Lighting RDM XS8 is a professional-grade 8-way DMX and RDM data splitter designed for efficient signal distribution in entertainment lighting systems. Housed in a compact 1U 19-inch rackmount enclosure, it simplifies DMX cabling and ensures reliable, isolated signal transmission for large-scale lighting installations. Featuring one 5-pin XLR input, one 5-pin thru, and eight optically isolated 5-pin XLR outputs, the RDM XS8 is built for stability, safety, and long-term performance.

Ideal for theaters, concerts, and stage productions, the RDM XS8 regenerates and distributes DMX512 signals while supporting RDM (Remote Device Management) for two-way communication between lighting controllers and fixtures. With its link-out termination switch, DMX/RDM mode selector, and full electrical isolation, the RDM XS8 guarantees clean signal routing, protection against ground loops, and optimal lighting control performance across complex systems.
