I am looking for a fan splitter that can accommodate at least 6 3-Pin fans, and be controlled by PWM signals.

 

If anyone has any links to something like this, feel free to post them here, thanks in advance.

 

 

You cannot control 3pin fans with PWM. Unless you are after something that takes a PWM signal and powers the fans via DC accordingly. If so the results may not be as expected

Fan Hub* sorry, and basically that's what I'm hoping to find.

 

JayzTwoCents has a PWN Fan Hub that can control 3-PIN AF140 fans*

PWM signal is digital. You can't use a splitter with it. What you're looking for is a hub. With 6 fans, preferably a powered hub. Such as this one.

 

If you want it to be true PWM, it has to be one fan for each fan header on the motherboard. THat's the only way to get each individual fan it's own PWM signal. Either that or a separate controller with separate temperature probes.

What you will want is a PWM input but with a controller than gives a 3 pin DC voltage control equivalent output, this unit from Phantek does exactly that taking a PWM input control signal:
