Cable Matters XLR Audio Over Ethernet Snake (XLR Snake 4 Channel Digital Snake Box) with 2 Boxes - 4 XLR Male Pigtail Boxes, 4 XLR Female Pigtail Boxes, Supports Ethernet Connectors, Black

Was great instead of running a lot of xlr cables to make the runs

This is a well crafted piece of equipment. Very easy to use and setup. For a function this is invaluable as it is much easier and safer to hide a Cat6 cable than the normal snake. I have used this multiple times over 100 ft of cable and the functionality and connectivity of this piece of equipment was well worth the price.

Pin1 not connected on any of the 4 XLR connections [This is not shielded] - so therefore does not work with Phantom Power on Microphones

Hood quality product

This is a handy breakout box set! I always worry about heavy cabling running underfoot of bandmates and patrons. This setup cuts down on clutter, risk of trip hazard and setup time. It adds to the number of XLR cables needed 4 source in, 4 output to the mixer/board, but they can be much shorter....that's good. If phantom power is needed, use shielded CAT cable. These are particularly handy for drummers! Less clutter and easier setup.
