Expand Your TrolMaster System with Clean, Reliable Connectivity
The TrolMaster SPH-1 RJ12 Splitter Hub makes it easy to expand your Hydro-X, Aqua-X or Tent-X control system by providing eight RJ12 output ports from a single controller connection. Instead of daisy-chaining multiple Y-splitters, the SPH-1 creates a clean, organised installation while making it simple to connect additional sensors, lighting adapters and device stations as your grow operation grows.
More than just a splitter, the SPH-1 is a powered signal booster, strengthening communication between your controller and connected devices. This allows growers to build much larger automation systems and even control almost unlimited numbers of compatible LED and HID grow lights when used with the appropriate TrolMaster lighting adapters. It's an essential accessory for commercial growers looking to build a scalable, professional environmental control system.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the TrolMaster SPH-1 used for?
The SPH-1 is a powered RJ12 Splitter Hub that expands your TrolMaster controller by providing one RJ12 input and eight RJ12 output ports, allowing multiple sensors, adapters and device stations to be connected neatly from one central location.
Why use the SPH-1 instead of RJ12 Y-splitters?
The SPH-1 creates a much cleaner installation, reduces cable clutter and eliminates the need to daisy-chain multiple Y-splitters, making your system easier to install, expand and maintain.
Does the SPH-1 boost the communication signal?
Yes. Unlike a standard splitter, the SPH-1 is a powered hub that boosts communication signals, allowing more sensors, modules and lighting adapters to be connected reliably across larger installations.
Which TrolMaster systems is the SPH-1 compatible with?
The SPH-1 works across multiple TrolMaster platforms, including:
Hydro-X
Aqua-X
Tent-X
Carbon-X
and other compatible RJ12-based TrolMaster systems.
Can I use the SPH-1 to expand my lighting system?
Yes. The SPH-1 allows multiple lighting adapters to be connected, making it possible to control very large LED or HID lighting installations from a single TrolMaster controller.
Does the SPH-1 include a power supply?
Yes. The package includes:
SPH-1 RJ12 Splitter Hub
12V DC Power Adapter
16 ft RJ12 Communication Cable
ready for plug-and-play installation.
Are there any installation considerations?
Yes. If you're using the SPH-1 to connect multiple lighting systems back to a single LMA lighting adapter (except the LMA-T and ThinkGrow lighting systems), do not connect the 12V DC power supply to the SPH-1. Follow the manufacturer's guidance for this specific configuration.
Who is the SPH-1 designed for?
The SPH-1 is ideal for commercial growers, greenhouse operators and advanced indoor growers who need to expand their TrolMaster system with additional sensors, lighting adapters or device stations while maintaining reliable communication and a tidy installation.
