PD Connex CX190 Cable Splitter 0.7m

PD Connex CX190 – DMX Cable Splitter with RJ45 and XLR Connectors

The PD Connex CX190 is a compact cable splitter that converts a single RJ45 DMX input into four XLR 3-pin male outputs. At 0.7 metres, it is designed for short-distance signal distribution in professional AV and lighting setups.

• Splits one DMX signal from an RJ45 connector into four independent XLR 3-pin male outputs for multi-device daisy-chaining
• 0.7-metre cable length keeps signal path short and reduces DMX timing issues in tight rigging configurations
• XLR 3-pin male connectors on the output side ensure secure, locked connections to DMX-compatible fixtures and controllers
• Lightweight at 235 grams, the splitter can be positioned close to the first fixture without adding bulk to the cable run

What makes the PD Connex CX190 different

Unlike standard DMX cables that connect one device to another, the CX190 actively splits a single control signal into four parallel paths. This eliminates the need for a separate DMX splitter box in compact installations where space and cable management are critical. The RJ45 input on one end and four XLR outputs on the other provide a clean, two-sided connection that matches common DMX rig topologies.

Ideal for...

Lighting technicians and AV integrators working with DMX-controlled fixtures in theatre, event, and studio environments. The splitter is suited for setups where a single DMX controller output must drive multiple fixtures in close proximity, such as front-of-house lighting rigs, broadcast camera lighting, or rehearsal stage configurations.

Application of PD Connex CX190

1. Connect the RJ45 end to the DMX output of a lighting console or controller
2. Route the four XLR 3-pin male outputs to individual DMX fixtures or splitters downstream
3. Secure the 0.7-metre cable run close to the fixture cluster to maintain signal integrity
4. Verify DMX termination at the last fixture in each chain to prevent signal reflection
