The SARMSS-32x310 32-channel splitter snake is built for large live sound setups where you need to send signals from the stage to two different mixing locations simultaneously. This rack-mountable splitter handles complex multi-console configurations for touring acts, festivals, and venues with both front-of-house and monitor mixing positions.

This hardwired Y-splitter takes 32 input channels and splits each signal to two separate XLR outputs, allowing one signal source to feed both a monitor console and main FOH mixer without signal degradation. The stage box features XLR/TRS combo jacks that accept both microphone XLR connections and 1/4" instrument cables from guitars, keyboards, and DI boxes.

The system includes one 3-foot and one 10-foot XLR trunk, giving you positioning flexibility for different console locations. Each of the 32 channels uses 22-gauge conductors with individual shielding to prevent crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. The 4-space rack-mountable steel stage box weighs 17.9 pounds and includes a carrying handle for transport between gigs.

Use this splitter for concerts, festivals, corporate events, and houses of worship where you need to run separate monitor and FOH mixes from the same input sources. The different trunk lengths work well when consoles are positioned at varying distances from the stage area.

Connect microphones and instruments to the combo jacks on the stage box, then run the XLR fanout cables to your mixing consoles. The system passes 48V phantom power for condenser microphones. Includes one-year warranty with fast shipping from Seismic Audio.

Yes, the SARMSS-32x310 passes 48V phantom power from your mixing console to condenser microphones connected to the stage box. Phantom power is essential for condenser mics because they require this DC voltage to power their internal preamp circuits. Both XLR trunk outputs will carry phantom power when activated on either connected mixing console.

How is this different from a regular snake cable?

Unlike a standard snake that sends signals to one destination, this splitter snake takes each input signal and splits it to two separate XLR outputs. This allows you to send the same 32 channels simultaneously to both a monitor console and a front-of-house mixer. Regular snakes are point-to-point connections, while this creates a Y-split for dual-console setups.

How do the XLR/TRS combo jacks work on the stage box?

The combo jacks accept both XLR microphone cables and 1/4" TRS instrument cables in the same input. Simply plug in whichever connector type you need - the jack automatically accommodates both. This eliminates the need for separate DI boxes when connecting keyboards, acoustic guitar pickups, or other line-level sources alongside your microphones.

What types of installations work best with this splitter snake?

This 32-channel splitter excels in permanent installations like concert halls, houses of worship, and event venues where you regularly run separate monitor and main mixes. It's also valuable for touring acts and production companies that need consistent dual-console capability. The rack-mountable design works well in both portable racks and permanent audio equipment rooms.

How do the different trunk lengths help with console positioning?

The 3-foot trunk works well for nearby monitor consoles or when space is limited, while the 10-foot trunk provides extra reach for front-of-house positions or consoles positioned further from the stage box. This dual-length setup gives you flexibility to position consoles at different distances without needing extension cables or dealing with excess cable length on shorter runs.
