The 100’ (30.5m) StageMASTER Multipair Audio Snake from Pro Co Sound discretely connects 8 mics and 4 XLR returns from a stagebox to a mixing desk with one multicore cable.  The stagebox is constructed of a steel connector panel chassis and a heavy-duty steel U-channel enclosure designed for shielding and protecting the connectors. The stagebox has a durable black powder-coat finish with white silk-screened channel identification numbers.

The rugged mic inputs use Neutrik D-Series nylon XLR panel connectors, while the returns are D-Series nylon XLR-type connectors. The stagebox is wired with SN multipair audio cable to a 4’ (1.21m) fanout with RHC male XLR connectors and RHC female XLR connectors. The cable is secured to the stagebox with a rugged nylon strain relief. The individual channels of the fan-out are protected with color-coded irradiated polyolefin shrink tubing for long flex life and easy channel identification.
