Description

Adam Hall 4 STAR CATBOX XM5 - Audio & DMX multicore adapter 4 x XLR 5-pin male to Cat.6a

The Adam Hall 4 STAR CATBOX XM5 makes transporting multiple balanced signals easier and more space-saving than ever before. This high-quality multicore adapter module makes it possible to transmit up to four audio signals or DMX control channels via a single network cable - efficient, robust and compatible with Cat.6a and etherCON® connections.

Whether for stage, studio or permanent installation - the CATBOX XM5 is part of the tried-and-tested 4 STAR SERIES and is aimed at anyone looking for professional signal routing with minimal cabling. Thanks to the wiring according to AES72 scheme 5E, it is fully compatible with all other CATBOX products from Adam Hall and many other manufacturers.

Four XLR outputs via a single network cable

The CATBOX XM5 offers four XLR 5-pin male connectors for the output of balanced signals such as audio or DMX. Up to four channels can be transported efficiently via a single RJ-45 cable (Cat.6a-compatible) - ideal for saving multi-core cable runs while keeping the cabling clean.

All XLR connectors are numbered and completely black, which not only ensures a professional look but also quick channel assignment. The RJ-45 socket enables the connection of standard network cables or shielded etherCON® systems - maximum flexibility, maximum compatibility.

Robust design for tough everyday use

The 0.3 m long outlets are each provided with a braided jacket that reliably protects the individual cable strands against kinking, friction and other mechanical influences. The silver-plated contacts in the Adam Hall K4CXM5BLK XLR connectors ensure a secure, durable connection with low contact resistance - ideal for use on tour or in installations with a high frequency of use.

Inside, OFC conductor material (oxygen-free copper) is used, which enables loss-free signal routing - whether for digital DMX signals or analog audio transmission. The cable sheathing is made of durable PVC, which does not lose its flexibility even with frequent winding and transportation.

Can be universally combined and used across systems

The CATBOX series from Adam Hall has a modular design: The XM5 variant(male output) can be easily combined with other CATBOX formats such as XF5 (female input), TRS variants or 3-pole XLR boxes. Thanks to identical pin assignment in accordance with the AES72 5E standard and consistent channel numbering, all variants work in combination - reliably and without guesswork.

Conclusion: Versatile Cat adapter for audio & DMX with professional standards

The Adam Hall 4 STAR CATBOX XM5 is a well thought-out, robust and practical adapter for anyone who wants to route multiple balanced signals quickly and cleanly via a single network cable. Whether for touring, studio, theater or permanent installation - this CATBOX saves cable runs, reduces sources of error and impresses with its clear signal structure and professional processing.
