SAEM-24x8x200 - 24 Channel XLR Color Coded Snake Cable - 200 Feet
The SAEM-24x8x200 delivers professional multitrack signal routing for medium to large venues, studios, and touring rigs that need reliable connection between stage and front-of-house. This 200-foot snake handles the critical link that can make or break your live sound setup.
Built around 24 XLR male sends and 8 XLR female returns, this snake eliminates the cable chaos that plagues complex live sound rigs. The heavy-duty steel stage box consolidates all your connections at the source, while the 200-foot length gives you the reach needed for outdoor festivals, large churches, or venues where your mixer sits far from the stage.
Each of the 24 channels uses individually shielded 22-gauge conductors to prevent crosstalk and reject interference—essential when you're running long cable runs in electrically noisy environments. Both the stage box and fantail are numerically labeled and color-coded, so load-in and teardown happen fast even in low-light conditions. High-quality XLR connectors with heavy-duty strain relief handle the abuse of regular transport and setup.
Perfect for bands running 16+ channels of drums, multiple guitars, keyboards, and vocals through a digital console. Churches mixing large worship teams will appreciate having dedicated returns for monitor feeds. The 105.8-pound build reflects the robust construction needed for regular gigging—this isn't lightweight cable that fails after a few shows.
Connects directly to any mixing console or audio interface with XLR inputs. Everything you need comes in the box, ready for your next show. One-year warranty and fast shipping ensure your investment is protected.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size venues can this 200-foot snake handle?
This snake works well for medium to large venues up to 2,000 capacity where your mixing position sits far from the stage. The 200-foot length is ideal for outdoor festivals, large churches, school auditoriums, or any venue where you need significant distance between stage and front-of-house position.
Do I need any additional cables or adapters to use this snake?
No additional cables are required. The snake comes complete with XLR male connectors on all 24 sends and XLR female connectors on the 8 returns, connecting directly to standard mixing consoles, digital boards, and audio interfaces. The stage box has a heavy-duty handle for transport.
How does this 24x8 configuration compare to a 32x8 snake?
The 24x8 gives you 24 input channels and 8 monitor returns, which handles most band setups including full drum kits, multiple guitars, bass, keyboards, and several vocal mics. If you regularly run more than 20 individual sources or need more than 8 separate monitor mixes, consider the 32-channel version.
Will this snake work with my digital mixing console?
Yes, this snake works with any mixing console that accepts XLR inputs, including digital boards from Yamaha, Allen & Heath, Behringer, and others. The XLR connections are industry standard, so no converters or special cables are needed.
How durable is this snake for regular gigging and transport?
Built for professional touring use with individually shielded 22-gauge conductors, heavy-duty XLR connectors, and reinforced strain relief at both ends. The steel stage box with integrated handle withstands regular loading and transport. At 105.8 pounds, it's built for reliability rather than portability.
