Aquaero 5/6 compatible Aquabus X4 by Aquacomputer (53258)

The Aquabus X4 expansion board is designed to enhance the connectivity of Aquaero 5 or Aquaero 6 devices by providing four separate Aquabus connections. This allows users to connect multiple Aquabus devices without the need for numerous splitter cables, simplifying complex setups. It is particularly useful for users who have a large number of Aquabus-compatible devices, such as sensors or controllers, and want to manage them efficiently.

The board includes a driver IC that ensures a clean and stable Aquabus signal for each of the four connections. This helps maintain optimal communication between the Aquaero unit and connected devices, reducing potential signal interference or degradation. Unlike standard splitters, the Aquabus X4 is not just a passive connector but actively manages signal integrity for better performance.

Compatibility with various Aquabus devices is a key feature of this expansion board. It supports devices like Calitemp sensors, PowerAdjust units, and Inking units, among others. However, it is important to note that Calitemp sensors must be connected directly to individual Aquabus connections on the board and cannot be linked via splitters. Other devices can be connected in any combination, even on connections already used by Calitemp sensors.

Installation of the Aquabus X4 is straightforward, as it simply connects to the Aquaero 5 or 6 unit. Users should follow guidelines to ensure even distribution of connected devices across the four ports for optimal performance. It is also important to avoid connecting multiple Aquabus X4 boards to a single Aquaero unit, as this may cause compatibility issues.
