Data Signal Booster - WS2811 - xConnect

Data Signal Booster (Pixel F-AMP / Null Buffer)

A data signal booster is used to regenerate and extend the pixel data signal when running long cable distances or large pixel counts. It helps maintain reliable data transmission where the signal would otherwise degrade.

Key features

• Regenerates and repeats pixel data signal
• Extends usable distance between controller and pixels
• Helps prevent flickering, freezing, or pixel dropouts
• Compatible with WS2811-style pixel protocols

Typical use cases

• Long cable runs from controller to first pixel
• Extending distance between pixel strings
• Situations where data signal becomes unreliable
  
• Note: A data signal booster regenerates the data signal only. It does not increase voltage and does not replace power injection.

Distance examples (approximate)

• Controller → 3–10 m cable → Data Signal Booster → up to 30 m cable → Pixel string
• Multiple boosters can be chained to extend distance further

• Actual distance depends on cable type, cable quality, and controller output.

Technical details

• Function: Data signal regeneration only
• Power: Pass-through (does not boost voltage)
• Connectors: xConnect
• Input voltage: Compatible with: 5V and 12V pixel systems
  • Note: The data signal booster does not regulate or convert voltage. Pixel voltage is passed through unchanged and must match the connected pixel string.

Warranty

• 1-year limited warranty
• Applies to unmodified and uncut products, including labels
