DMX Wiring and Practice Quick Reference

The last DMX device on the line must be terminated with a termination switch or resistor with a value of 100 to 120 ohms between pins 2 and 3. RJ45 connectors may be used with Cat5 cable, for permanent wiring. Cat5 UTP cable may be used inside metal conduit. Use Cat5 STP when installed in raceways. DMX Wiring Guide.

Drivers with only one set of DMX terminals (DMX in +, DMX in -, and DMX in shield) use a standard DMX bus topology (daisy chain). At the last driver, a 120Ω resistor must be connected between the DMX in + and DMX in - pins of the driver as termination. This method is compatible with RDM.
