RC4M-900SX DMXio - HG Data Transceiver

Fast, Secure Wireless DMX Transmission and Distribution
The RC4Magic-900SX DMXio-HG transceiver is ideal for dimming lamps, LEDs and more, while providing state of the art security and best-in-class, congestion-free 900MHz wireless dimming for customers in the USA, Canada, Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand.

The 900SX DMXio-HG transceiver is a smart device that automatically detects other wireless transmitters, and will automatically switch to receive mode. Manually switching modes is as simple as a push of a button. The 900SX DMXio transceiver—working with another 900 SX DMXio or with another RC4 900SX wireless DMX device- is the ideal hub for all wireless 900MHz dimming in theater, arenas, films, television and even in architectural applications.

900MHz avoids the congested 2.4GHz band and provides a fast, reliable, secure signal up to 600 feet (180m) or more inside theatres and other performance spaces, and to 1000 feet (300m) or more outdoors. Three DMX universes—and occasionally more- can operate safely and reliably in the 900MHz band, thanks in part to RC4 System IDs. This means interference-free operation anywhere, anytime.

• DMX Input: meets USITT DMX512/1990(4us) with 1-second data hold after dropout
• DMX Output: straight-thru hardware connection from DMX input to output
• Optional DMX channel limiting: set lowest and highest channel using RC4 OneTouch (default is full 512-channel universe)

Receiver Mode

• Any number of DMXio receivers may be used in a system
• DMX Output: meets USITT DMX512/1990
• The DMX specification allows up to 32 devices on a DMX output.  The DMXio data output exceeds this requirement and is capable of driving additional devices
