Power/Data cable  

In order to guarantee a reliable operation, we strongly recommend the use of our Major 
Power/Data cable. This XLR4 pole cable contains two lines á 0,38 mm² for the 
transmission of the  DMX signals, as well as two lines à 2,08 mm² for the supply 
voltage of the Colour Changers. 

The high cross-section of the live wired lines considerably increases the maximum 
cable length, which you can use within the system. In order to ensure a reliable 
operation, you should not use more than 300 m total cable length (theoretical figure) 
per output. Please note that you have to differentiate between the theoretical cable 
length and the actually usable cable length. 

 

Example: 

 

1. Actually usable cable length: 145 m (see systemdrawing) 

2. Theoretical cable length: 290 m (please see calculation chart below):

Colour Changer no. 2 

 

50 m + 45 m  

   95 m 

Colour Changer no. 3 

 

50 m + 45 m +50 m = 

 145 m 

Total theoretical cable length in this drawing   

 

290 m 

(You have to add the total cable length between each Colour Changer and the PSU in 
order to calculate the theoretical figure.)
