SARMSS-24x1515 - 24 Channel XLR TRS Combo Splitter Snake Cable - two 15' XLR trunks
This 24-channel rack-mountable splitter snake is built for live sound engineers, house engineers, and mobile crews who need to send microphone and line signals from the stage to multiple destinations simultaneously. The SARMSS-24x1515 splits each of your 24 input channels to feed both front-of-house and monitor consoles without signal loss or interference.
The hardwired Y-splitter design sends your stage signals down two separate 15-foot XLR trunks, letting you run feeds to your main mixing console and monitor board from a single stage box connection. Each of the 24 channels features individually shielded pairs with 22-gauge heavy-duty conductors to reject noise and maintain signal integrity across long cable runs.
The 3-space rack-mountable stage box houses XLR and TRS combo jacks, accepting both microphone inputs and line-level signals from keyboards, DI boxes, and other sources. Male XLR connectors terminate both fantails for direct connection to mixing consoles, while the stage box provides female XLR and quarter-inch combo inputs for maximum flexibility.
This splitter snake handles permanent installations in churches, theaters, and venues, as well as mobile applications for touring bands and rental companies. The heavy-duty steel stage box with integrated handle stands up to repeated setup and teardown, while clearly labeled connections speed up load-in times.
Connect microphones, instruments, and line sources to the stage box, then run the two XLR fantails to your mixing positions. The system includes the complete snake assembly with both 15-foot trunks. Seismic Audio backs this professional splitter snake with a one-year warranty and ships it ready for immediate deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this splitter snake pass phantom power to condenser microphones?
Yes, this splitter snake passes 48V phantom power from your mixing console to condenser microphones connected to the stage box. Phantom power is essential for condenser mics, as they require this DC voltage to power their internal electronics and pickup capsule. The splitter maintains phantom power on both output trunks when supplied by either connected mixer.
What's the difference between a splitter snake and a regular multicore snake?
A splitter snake like this one takes each input signal and splits it to multiple outputs, allowing you to send the same microphone signal to both your front-of-house console and monitor mixer simultaneously. Regular multicore snakes only provide a single path from stage to mixer. This hardwired Y-splitter design provides simple, reliable signal distribution without the complexity of transformer isolation or ground lift switches.
Do the combo jacks accept both XLR and quarter-inch inputs on the same channel?
Yes, each of the 24 channels features XLR/TRS combo jacks that accept either a standard XLR microphone cable or a balanced quarter-inch TRS cable. This flexibility lets you connect microphones, DI boxes, keyboards, and other line sources directly to the stage box without adapters. However, each combo jack only accepts one connection type at a time per channel.
Can I use this snake for both permanent installation and mobile applications?
Absolutely. The heavy-duty steel stage box with integrated handle is built for repeated transport and setup, while the professional XLR connectors and individually shielded conductors provide the reliability needed for permanent installations. The 15-foot trunk length works well for most stage setups, and the clearly labeled connections speed up load-in whether you're setting up nightly or installing once.
How do I use the two separate XLR trunks in my setup?
The two 15-foot XLR trunks let you send identical signals to two different destinations from a single stage box. Connect one trunk to your front-of-house mixing console and the other to your monitor mixer, or use one trunk for your main PA system and the second for recording or broadcast feeds. Both trunks carry the same signal from each channel, so you can position your mixing consoles wherever needed without running additional cables from the stage.
