60m/200ft and a maximum of 20m XLR4 cable length should separate adjacent fixture units to avoid signal deterioration.

Note: Due to the higher levels of leakage current of the PSU30 it is important that the XLR4 cables used are manufactured only to
the specification detailed above. It is also important that the cables are not coupled or uncoupled whilst the PSU is powered and
that the PSU is correctly grounded.
Important Notice:
The use of an opto-splitter for DMX signal distribution is highly recommended when several fixture units are not plugged into the
same power source.
