can I use a splitter or switch for pixelnet data output at the Orange box ?

Use two combiners.

First one where your orange box is in reverse to get seperate outputs of four pixelnet universe Take the forth output and run to area #2 to run that hub on univers #4

Combine the three left back togeter with the second combiner at the same location and tun that cable to area #1 with the three universe intact for the three hubs there.

Make sense?

Also mike is working on a Pixelnet splitter that would be much neater if it is ready and it would just go where your orange box is.

  A "switch" cannot be used with PixelNet or DMX communication, btw.
