These things are the best idea/implentation since the invention of um... hampster wheels. Solid workmanship and zero noise. Excellent build quality. I run a 16-channel rack-mounted digital mixer w/ powered subs and cabs rig that I run from stage while playing perfectly awful bass guitar. I bought two of these GEARit units and plugged them into channels 9-16 (see pic). I intend to get two more and fill all 16 channels. The cables pass through an empty rack space with the "box" ends velcroed solidly to the bottom of the rack and aligned with the back (sans cover). The front and back covers of this particular road case are deep enough to allow all of this wiring to remain in place when I rig down. When I have the other two GEARit units, I will be able to set this rack in place, pop off the covers, run four CAT6 network cables to 4x breakout boxes placed strategically around the stage and plug everything in with short-run XLR cables. I'll be set up in no time and even quicker tearing down. Talk about cable management! I LOVE a neat, trip-free stage. While you're at it, don't skimp on the network cables. Go with the GEARit Shielded CAT6 Ethercon Cables. Heavy-duty and the Ethercon connectors shroud the RJ45 network connectors in a solid metal housing (much like an XLR) and lock in place. Totally roadworthy. Look for bundles of GEARit boxes and cables with your choice of cable length and breakout configurations. Solid gear. Oh, yeah. They can also be used to connect your DMX lighting. Bloody wizardry. Review: Great product! Well built! - Great performance units! I have several pairs that I use for analog audio and DMX lighting. I always use the Gear-It brand breakouts and their shielded Ethercon's. Well-built and have had zero problems with these. I did purchase other brands at half the price. Do yourself a favor, DONT BUY THE CHEAPER ONES! Get these. You will be happy. Best, Ken - Indiana ## Features - 4-Channel XLR to Ethernet Adapters - Connect these two extender boxes with an Ethernet cable up to 300 ft. (sold separately) to carry up to 4 channels of XLR audio or 3-pin DMX control signals across stages, studios, DJ venues and live events over a single connection. - EtherCON-Compatible RJ45 Connectors - Lock the Ethernet connection in place during busy concerts and live events with EtherCON-compatible RJ45 connectors on each adapter box. Run an EtherCON-compatible Ethernet cable between the boxes up to 300 feet, and you can trust the boxes won't get detached when it matters most. - 4 Channels of Analog Audio, One Cable - Used together, these two adapters carry 4 analog XLR audio signals over one RJ45 cable. Connect audio from mixers, microphones and instruments to the XLR breakout cables, and run all 4 signals to the other adapter via shielded, balanced Ethernet cable (sold separately). - 4 Separate DMX Control Signals - Control LED stage lights, DJ lights, fog machines and effects with up to 4 DMX signals over 3-pin XLR cables. These adapters allow you to use up to 4 different lighting controllers to control separate lights, while minimizing long cable runs from the control room. - Carries Phantom Power for Mics and DI Boxes - Connect stereo DI boxes, groups of condenser mics and more over a single Ethernet cable to your preamps. These two adapters safely pass 48V phantom power over a compatible RJ45 network cable, so you can use phantom-powered studio or stage gear. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BSR7R72B | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,260 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #198 in Microphone Cables | | Brand | GEARit | | Built-In Media | 2 x 4-Channel XLR to RJ45 Ethercon Extender, 2 ft XLR Breakout Cables (1M, 1F) | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Server | | Connector Type | RJ45, XLR | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 190 Reviews | | Input Voltage | 48 volts_of_direct_current | | Item Length | 24 inches | | Manufacturer | GEARit | | Mfr Part Number | GI-DMX-4CHWC | | Model Number | GI-DMX-4CHWC | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Ports | 8 | | UPC | 815248025124 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** GEARit - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Server - **Connector Type:** RJ45, XLR - **Number of Ports:** 8 ## Images ![XLR Over Ethernet 4 Channel Snake Ethercon Cat6 DMX 2ft Breakout - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61SMyNI73ML.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Network cable for audio and lights?? *by F***D on June 10, 2025* I guess I've been under a rock, but when did CAT6 network cable take over from those heavy, cumbersome 150' audio snakes?
