The CB-DMX-ACP-1/2 is a DMX adapter cable designed exclusively for the Nanlite PavoTube II X series. It converts the fixture’s 5-pin aviation connector into standard 5-pin XLR connectors, allowing you to integrate PavoTube II X lights into conventional DMX setups.
First, it adapts the PavoTube II X’s aviation-style DMX port to the widely used 5-pin XLR DMX interface. Second, it maintains the fixture’s control scheme through a dual adapted control design. As a result, you can connect PavoTube II X fixtures to standard DMX controllers and venues that use XLR cabling.
Because the cable is made specifically for the PavoTube II X series, it connects directly to the fixture’s 5-pin aviation port and converts that to standard 5-pin XLR connectors. Therefore, you can plug the converted end into typical DMX chains and controllers that use 5-pin XLR. The cable’s design supports the dual adapted control layout of the PavoTube II X to ensure proper signal routing.
Question: Is this cable compatible with other Nanlite fixtures?
Answer: The CB-DMX-ACP-1/2 is exclusively customized for the PavoTube II X series. For other fixtures, check the connector type and control layout before use.
Question: Does the adapter change DMX signal type or only the connector?
Answer: The adapter converts the PavoTube II X’s 5-pin aviation connector to standard 5-pin XLR connectors while preserving the fixture’s dual adapted control design so the DMX signal routing matches the PavoTube II X requirements.
Question: Can I use this cable to connect to any DMX controller with 5-pin XLR?
Answer: Yes. The cable converts the aviation connector to standard 5-pin XLR, which lets you connect PavoTube II X fixtures to common DMX controllers and venue cabling that use 5-pin XLR.
Question: Where is this adapter most useful?
Answer: It is most useful when integrating PavoTube II X fixtures into existing DMX setups that rely on 5-pin XLR cabling, such as production rigs, studios, and live event installations.
