Martin Heavy Frost Assy Mac Encore Performance vs Martin Power+data Adapter BBD-M16 0,25M
The Martin Heavy Frost Assembly is an optical component for the MAC Encore Performance fixture that softens light output, while the Power+data Adapter BBD-M16 is a short 0.25m cable connector for linking Martin lighting systems. Choose the frost assembly if you need to modify beam diffusion on an existing MAC Encore; choose the adapter if you need a sealed, weatherproof cable to connect Martin P3 or DMX control systems.
No sales tax on orders shipped outside California — total cost beats national retailers that charge sales tax in nearly every state.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference in application between these two products?
The Heavy Frost Assembly is an optical accessory that modifies how light behaves on a MAC Encore Performance fixture—it diffuses and softens the beam. The Power+data Adapter is an infrastructure cable that connects separate Martin lighting and control components together. One changes light output; the other enables system connectivity.
Can I use the Power+data Adapter outdoors?
Yes. The adapter's IP65 rating means it resists dust and water ingress, making it suitable for outdoor venues, touring environments, and humidity-prone installations where standard connectors would fail.
Do I need both products for my setup?
Not necessarily. You need the Heavy Frost Assembly only if you own a MAC Encore Performance fixture and want to modify its beam diffusion. You need the Power+data Adapter only if you have Martin P3 or DMX systems that require a short, weather-sealed connection between components.
Is the Heavy Frost Assembly silent during operation?
Yes. The 3-phase stepper motor technology in the heavy frost assembly ensures silent, responsive motion during pan/tilt movement across the fixture's full range.
