Eight-channel audio snake for balanced

This 20-foot cable carries eight independent channels between 1/4-inch TRS and XLR male connectors. Each line uses 26 AWG conductors wrapped in aluminium foil shielding to reduce electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference. Colour-coded jackets in red, white, green, yellow, black, blue, grey and brown simplify routing in live or studio setups.

Shielded pairs maintain signal integrity over

The foil shield on every twisted pair rejects external noise that can accumulate across a 6.096-metre run. Balanced mono operation cancels common-mode hum, while the same wiring supports unbalanced stereo feeds when needed. Connectors are moulded for strain relief so repeated patching does not degrade the shielding or conductor joints.

Replaces eight separate patch cables in a single

Installers running multicore between a mixing console and a stage box or interface reduce clutter and setup time by pulling one assembly instead of eight individual leads. The snake is not suited for installations that require Neutrik-style locking XLRs or heavier-gauge conductors for very long runs beyond the supplied length.

Questions about this item

Does the 26 AWG construction generate any heat or noise during extended use?

No — this is a passive analog cable with 26 AWG conductors and foil shielding, so it produces no heat or electrical noise regardless of how long it runs.

What connectors must my mixer and interface already have for the 1/4-inch TRS and XLR male plugs to mate?

Your mixer needs eight 1/4-inch TRS jacks and your interface or stage box needs eight XLR female inputs; the snake simply bridges those two formats.

Will the color-coded channels line up with the striping on my older 8-channel multicore?

The eight wires are coded red, white, green, yellow, black, blue, gray and brown — match each colour to the corresponding channel on your existing multicore for a straight-through patch.
