The SAXT-4x5M delivers reliable 4-channel connectivity for musicians and sound engineers who need clean signal routing between stage and mixer. This 5-foot snake cable bridges the gap between balanced and unbalanced connections with professional-grade construction.

This multi-channel snake handles simultaneous audio signals from four sources, connecting TRS outputs from mixers, audio interfaces, or monitor controllers directly to XLR inputs on powered speakers, amplifiers, or recording gear. The design eliminates the need for multiple individual cables while maintaining signal integrity.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors, each channel delivers enhanced signal clarity and superior RF rejection. The cable features shielded, balanced construction that prevents noise interference even in electrically noisy environments. Color coding and numerical labeling on each channel simplifies setup and prevents connection errors during live performances or recording sessions.

Perfect for connecting mixer outputs to powered monitors in recording studios, routing signals to stage monitors during live performances, or linking audio interfaces to outboard gear in project studios. The 5-foot length works well for desktop setups, small stages, or rack-to-rack connections where longer runs aren't necessary.

Each end features serviceable connectors that can be repaired if damaged, extending the cable's lifespan. The snake includes four TRS male connectors on one end and four XLR male connectors on the other, providing everything needed for immediate setup.

Seismic Audio backs this snake cable with a one-year warranty and fast shipping. Professional-grade build quality at a price that works for working musicians.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment does this snake cable connect?

This snake connects TRS outputs (like those found on audio interfaces, mixers, or monitor controllers) to XLR inputs on powered speakers, amplifiers, or recording equipment. It's commonly used to route signals from mixer outputs to powered monitors or from audio interface outputs to studio monitors with XLR inputs.

Is 5 feet long enough for most setups?

The 5-foot length is ideal for desktop studio setups, small stages, or rack-to-rack connections where equipment is positioned close together. For larger stages or control rooms where the mixer is farther from speakers, you'll need a longer snake cable. This length works well for venues accommodating up to 100 people where stage depth is minimal.

Can I use this cable for both recording and live sound applications?

Yes, the shielded, balanced construction makes this snake suitable for both studio recording and live performance use. The oxygen-free copper conductors and RF rejection prevent interference in electrically noisy live venues, while the clean signal path maintains audio quality needed for recording applications.

What's the difference between this and individual XLR-to-TRS cables?

This snake cable consolidates four connections into one manageable unit, reducing cable clutter and setup time. The bundled design prevents individual cables from getting tangled or separated, making it more convenient for mobile applications. However, individual cables offer more routing flexibility if you need to spread connections across different areas.

Are the connectors user-serviceable if they get damaged?

Yes, both the TRS and XLR connectors feature serviceable ends that can be repaired or replaced if damaged. This design extends the cable's lifespan compared to molded connectors that require complete replacement when damaged. Basic soldering skills are needed for repairs, or any audio technician can service them.
