Frequently asked questions
What is the key difference between these two products?
The Atomic Dot is a lighting fixture that produces visible light output; the Junction Box is a passive and active infrastructure component that routes power, DMX, and Ethernet signals to other equipment. They serve different purposes in a lighting rig.
Can I use these products together?
Yes. The Junction Box would distribute DMX and power signals that control multiple Atomic Dot fixtures and other lights. The Junction Box is a supporting component for systems containing many fixtures like the Atomic Dot.
Which one is better for small events?
The Atomic Dot is more suitable for small to mid-sized events, as it provides visible strobe and RGB effects. The Junction Box is only necessary if you are running many lights that require centralized signal and power distribution across a large rig.
Are both products rated for outdoor use?
Yes, both carry IP65 ratings for outdoor deployment. The Atomic Dot is weatherproofed as a fixture; the Junction Box is weatherproofed to protect internal electronics and connectors in variable conditions.
