SAJLP-24x8x100 - 24 Channel 100 Foot XLR Low Profile Snake Cable with 8 TRS Returns
The SAJLP-24x8x100 serves bands, venues, and production companies running larger live sound setups where cable management and stage real estate matter. This 100-foot snake handles 24 microphone channels plus 8 monitor returns through a compact low-profile stage box that won't dominate your stage footprint.
Built with circuit board technology instead of traditional point-to-point wiring, this snake delivers reliable connections while keeping the stage box dimensions to just 11" x 10.25" x 2.75". The fantail end features 24 color-coded XLR male connectors for microphones and instruments, while the stage box provides 8 TRS returns for monitor feeds and effects sends.
Each of the 24 pairs uses individually shielded 25-gauge conductors to reject interference and maintain signal integrity across the full 100-foot run. Heavy-duty steel construction on the stage box and reinforced strain relief at both ends handle the demands of regular load-in and teardown. Numerical labeling on the stage box and color coding on the fantail speed up setup and troubleshooting.
This configuration works well for mid-sized venues up to 500 people, full band setups with multiple monitor mixes, or any application where you need to run 24 channels from stage to front-of-house position. The 8 TRS returns handle monitor sends, reverb returns, or effects loops without requiring separate cables.
Connect microphones and DI boxes to the XLR connectors, then plug TRS cables from your mixer's aux sends into the stage box returns. Ships complete with the snake cable and one-year warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size venue does a 24-channel snake work for?
This snake handles venues up to 500 people comfortably, supporting full band setups with drums, multiple guitars, bass, keys, and several vocal mics. The 8 return channels let you run separate monitor mixes or effects sends, making it suitable for professional installations and touring acts that need comprehensive stage-to-FOH connectivity.
What's the advantage of circuit board technology over traditional snake construction?
Circuit board construction creates more reliable connections than point-to-point soldering while allowing for a much more compact stage box. Traditional snakes this size often require bulky stage boxes that take up significant stage real estate, while this low-profile design keeps your stage clean and reduces trip hazards.
What cables do I need to complete the connections?
The snake provides XLR male connectors on the fantail end, so you'll connect microphones and DI boxes directly. For the 8 TRS returns on the stage box, you'll need TRS (balanced 1/4") cables to connect to your mixer's aux sends, monitor outputs, or effects returns. Most mixers use TRS outputs for balanced sends.
How does individual shielding compare to overall cable shielding?
Individual shielding on each pair provides superior noise rejection compared to snakes that only shield the entire bundle. This construction prevents crosstalk between channels and maintains signal integrity even in electrically noisy environments like venues with lots of lighting or near power distribution.
Can I use this snake for recording studio applications?
Yes, the individual shielding and circuit board construction make this snake well-suited for studio use where signal quality is critical. The 100-foot length works for larger studios or when running cables between live rooms and control rooms, and the TRS returns handle cue sends or effects loops that studios commonly need.
