Editorial Review The Radial Catapult is a 4-channel audio snake that lets you send analog or AES digital audio signals over standard Cat 5 or Cat 6 shielded twisted pair cable. This allows stage techs to take advantage of the relatively low cost of this abundantly available cable for return snakes or for transporting balanced audio across a large stage. Each input module features four XLR inputs, four XLR thru-puts along with two Neutrik Ethercon outputs to connect the Cat 5 cable to the desired output module. These are equipped with RJ45 type Ethercon input and thru-put plus two sets of XLR outputs.As with all Radial products, the Catapult is constructed with solid 14-gauge steel to handle the rigors of live touring and is finished in a powder-coat finish to keep your Catapult looking good for years! Inside, a two-sided PCB is used to mount the connectors and transformers doubling up the solder joints for maximum durability.For the system contractor, the Catapult lets you take advantage of pre-wired networks to connect audio from one room to another.Features:Send analog audio or digital AES signals over Cat 5/6 cableWorks within a building's existing cable infrastructureChoice of direct-wired or isolated splitsTransmits four AES signals (eight audio channels)Get your Radial 4-channel Cat 5 Audio Snake today at the guaranteed lowest price from Sam Ash Direct with our 45-day return and 60-day price protection policy.
