LynTec Unveil New Dual DMX Relay for Distributed Power Control
LynTec, a premier manufacturer of electrical power control solutions for professional audio, video, and lighting (AVL) systems, has announced its new Dual DMX Relay (DDR).
First introduced at LDI 2025, the DDR is designed to meet the growing demand for distributed power control, allowing production professionals to manage power in DMX-driven environments without relying solely on centralized panels. Featuring a single 20A input that supports two 20A PowerKon output connectors, the unit allows users to either pass a full 20A through one output or split the load between two separate devices.
The DDR (available to order with shipping from 23 March) features a single 20A input that supports two 20A PowerKon output connectors, allowing users to either pass the full 20A through a single output or split the load between two devices. The module is an IP65 rated enclosure for use in outdoor environments where dust and water may be an issue. This versatile configuration offers designers greater adaptability when managing circuit control in a variety of both permanent install and live production setups.
The compact relay can be installed virtually anywhere equipment is located, including on trusses, behind line arrays, or inside road cases. It supports two modes of control. Out of the box, the unit is DMX sensing, automatically turning on when a DMX signal is detected and turning off when DMX signal is lost for 5 minutes. Alternatively, users can activate the onboard RDM functionality to assign a DMX address and control each output independently. The unit is UL Listed, as well as being CE and cMET certified for both EU and US models.
"Rental and touring installers are constantly balancing speed, flexibility and reliability. The new Dual DMX Relay is designed to support all three," said Mark Bishop, president of LynTec. "By enabling controlled power to be deployed exactly where it is needed, whether on a truss, in a rack or inside a road case, the relay helps simplify setups, reduce cabling complexity and adapt quickly to fast-moving live production environments. With CE and cMET certification, it also gives rental and touring companies confidence that the same solution can be used consistently across global markets."
