Obsidian Control Netron RDM6 IP

About the Obsidian Control Netron RDM6 IP

The Netron RDM6 IP by Obsidian Control Systems is a professional six-port DMX/RDM splitter engineered for demanding live production environments. Built around an IP66-rated powder-coated aluminium chassis, it is fully sealed against dust and water ingress, making it equally at home on an outdoor festival stage, a touring rig, or a permanent venue install where reliability cannot be compromised.

Each of the six output ports is optically isolated, ensuring that a fault or interference on one output run cannot propagate back through the system and disrupt other fixtures or the console upstream. An onboard RDM enable/disable switch gives the operator direct control over bidirectional RDM communication, while individual LED port feedback indicators allow fast visual health-checking of each universe leg without needing additional test equipment.

Key Features for Live Production

The RDM6 IP’s locking IP66-rated connectors on both DMX and power circuits eliminate the risk of accidental disconnection during a show, a critical consideration in outdoor or high-traffic rigging positions. The hardware DMX termination button removes the need for a physical termination plug on the final run, simplifying deployment when splitters are flown on truss. Power in/thru connectivity allows multiple units to be daisy-chained from a single power source, reducing cable runs and keeping the rig clean.

Mounting versatility is another standout: the unit can be placed freestanding, bolted directly to truss via M10/M12 fittings, or wall-mounted in a permanent installation, all without additional adaptors. At just 2 kg and drawing only 5W, it is a lightweight, low-overhead node that scales efficiently across large or complex DMX topologies.
