Terminate DMX
DMX In and DMX Thru cables terminate to RJ45 connectors. DMX is installed in a daisy chain
topology and includes one pair of wires (data +, data -) plus an ISO ground (common). ETC
recommends Cat5e (or better) minimum 24 AWG conductors terminated to T568B standard. Up to
32 fixtures can be connected per DMX run.
