Radial Catapult RX4 4ch receiver, with balanced outs, uses shielded cat-5
The Radial Catapult RX4 is a snake that is designed to use alongside the TX4 which is accepting four-channel of analog or AES audio signal over Ethernet, and routing them into the eight XLR with the jack provided. The Radial Catapult RX4 is perfectly useful in live-sound reinforcement applications, because it is allowing the live-sound stage techs use relatively affordable cable for ensuring the quality of the quality audio connections around large venues and stages. It's also best to use by system contractors, who are given the ability to employ a pre-wired networks for moving audio throughout disparate room.
The Radial Catapult RX4 is designed for giving you 2 banks of XLR channels, each sporting four channels. Thus, you are able to split audio to multiple sources, if ever that's what you needed or wanted. Keep also in mind that the two RJ45-type EtherCON connections. One is a multi-channel input, for use with the TX4 on the transmission end. The other is a through-put, and can be implemented in routing signals to additional Catapults. A ground-lift switch helps in eliminating any noise issues on the Cat 5 line, while a steel handle provides easy transport, and four bumpers protect the Ethernet jacks and ground-lift switch from wear and tear.
