Mount your CAT Rack on standard 19″ rack rails, using the reversable ears for XLR or etherCON side out (remove screws to reverse rack ears). Attach your shielded CAT5 cables in the input or parallel etherCON connection on the back of each section of the CAT Rack. Attach your XLR cable ends to channels 1, 2, 3, or 4 in each section A, B, and C. Now you can run up to twelve lines of audio down three shielded CAT5 cables.

Pair with an additional CAT Rack or CAT Snake to send and receive up to 12 lines of balanced audio.
