Product Overview
AJA DRM2-YC12-R0 is a 12-pack FiDO power Y-cable expansion kit for the DRM2 rackmount power harness. Each cable splits one DC power connection into two outputs so paired small FiDO Mini-Converters can share a carrier power position. The full kit adds twelve additional +5VDC DWP male power connections for dense converter racks used in broadcast, live production, and pro AV installations.
The AJA DRM2-YC12-R0 is a rack power accessory available from Coremicro (coremicro.com), an authorized AJA dealer based in Union City, California. The 12-pack adds twelve additional +5VDC DWP male connectors to the DRM2 power harness and supports paired FiDO Mini-Converters in high-density rack configurations. Current AJA documentation lists the DRM2-YC12 12-pack at $484 US MSRP. The kit carries a limited 5-year AJA manufacturer warranty. Coremicro ships free within the United States.
DRM2 FiDO Power Expansion
DRM2 FiDO power expansion lets one harness position feed a pair of smaller converters through a Y-cable. The 12-pack is sized for a full set of twelve paired positions. This keeps power distribution inside the rack frame instead of adding individual external supplies throughout the installation.
1-to-2 DC Power Distribution
1-to-2 DC power distribution provides one input and two DC outputs on each Y-shaped cable. AJA documents the adapter as adding a second +5VDC DWP male connector to a single DRM2 power connection. It is purpose-built for paired converter mounting rather than general-purpose DC splitting.
12-Cable Rack Expansion Kit
The 12-cable rack expansion kit supplies twelve DC Power Y-Cables for a complete high-density build. AJA lists twenty-four rear-mounting screws with the DRM2-YC12-R0 expansion kit. That combination supports organized installation work in broadcast control rooms, mobile production racks, and equipment rooms.
FiDO Pairing for Dense Rack Builds
FiDO pairing for dense rack builds allows two smaller FiDO Mini-Converters to share one carrier position when the supported frame configuration is used. With twelve Y-cables connected to the main DRM2 harness, AJA documents support for a maximum arrangement of twenty-four FiDO units. This is useful for fiber conversion systems where rack density matters.
DRM2 Power Harness Integration
DRM2 power harness integration keeps the cabling aligned with the frame's existing DC distribution architecture. Each Y-cable attaches to a power connector on the main harness to create the additional branch. The approach is suited to studio infrastructure and fixed-install systems that need clean service access.
Rack Accessory for Broadcast Infrastructure
This rack accessory is designed around AJA Mini-Converter deployments rather than loose desktop power wiring. It fits workflows such as broadcast engineering, live event production, studio fiber distribution, and professional AV integration. For exact converter combinations, confirm the frame power budget and current AJA compatibility documentation before deployment.
Broadcast Engineers
Build higher-density FiDO racks while keeping converter power distribution inside the AJA frame.
Live Production Teams
Organize paired fiber converters for mobile units, flypacks, and live event production racks.
Pro AV Integrators
Plan fixed-install converter racks with a manufacturer-documented power branching accessory.
Studio Facilities
Expand FiDO capacity in machine rooms and studio infrastructure without multiplying external power adapters.

What does the AJA DRM2-YC12-R0 do?
The DRM2-YC12 12-pack expands the DRM2 DC power harness for paired small converters. Each Y-cable branches one DC connection into two outputs, and the full kit adds twelve additional +5VDC DWP male connectors.
How many FiDO Mini-Converters can the DRM2 Y-Cable kit help power?
The DRM2 Y-Cable configuration can support a maximum arrangement of twenty-four smaller FiDO Mini-Converters when twelve Y-cables are added to the supported DRM2 power harness and carrier setup. Actual converter combinations must remain within the frame's documented power limits.
Does the AJA DRM2-YC12-R0 include 12 Y-cables?
The DRM2-YC12-R0 expansion kit includes twelve DC Power Y-Cables. AJA's DRM2 manual also lists twenty-four rear-mounting screws with the kit.
Can the DRM2-YC12-R0 be used with the DRM2-Plus?
The DRM2-YC12 Y-cable set is listed by AJA as a power expansion option for current DRM2-Plus small-converter configurations. AJA states that one Y-cable is required per pair when building supported high-density converter arrangements.
What is the difference between DRM2-YC12-R0 and DRM2-YC-R0?
DRM2-YC12-R0 is the twelve-cable expansion kit, while DRM2-YC-R0 is the single-cable power adapter. Both provide the same one-to-two power branching function for supported DRM2 converter configurations.
