Optimize your cabling system with the CAT Box FMX from SoundTools, a compact and durable stagebox that can deliver up to four channels of analog audio over a single Cat 5 cable. Sporting two male and two female XLR connections equipped with selectable phantom power, along with an etherCON input and a parallel etherCON output, you can use the CAT Box as everything from a splitter to a building block for your ideal modular snake setup.
The XLR connections support not only balanced mic- or line-level analog audio, but also AES3, DMX, COM, and other 3-pin XLR-based signals, and multiple differing signal types can be run simultaneously over the same Cat 5 cable. The CAT Box is fully passive, ensuring easy integration into any setup without the need to run power cables. Built to last, the CAT Box is both durable and attractive, with an anodized aluminum case along with a laser-etched SoundTools logo. Like all SoundTools products, the CAT Box includes the lifetime Happy Human Warranty for peace of mind.
- Send multiple signal formats down a single, shielded CAT cable
- Use as a low-cost hard-wire splitter
- Daisy-chain units and drop the same channels in multiple locations
- Eliminate the need for turnarounds for return signals
Stylish black and red coloring is finished with a laser-etched SoundTools logo. When set on its side, the CAT Box allows cables to lay flat for a cleaner setup. The clearly labeled inputs and outputs simplify setup and tear down, making this the stage dropbox you’ll be reaching for again and again.
