Using the Direct Drive ports on the front of the WaveEngine, you can plug in pumps from different brands like IceCap, Reef Octopus, and Maxspect so you can power 4 pumps off a single power supply. By utilizing the Direct Drive ports, you no longer need the external controllers that are included with these pumps.
