C.A.S.T. Warnings
C.A.S.T. is designed to be a simple, plug and play solution for total cable management however
there are a number of warnings that you should heed in order to prevent causing damage to your
Cranborne Audio product or instrument/device connected to each end.
Do NOT connect a C.A.S.T.
device to your home network
or router
C.A.S.T. is a point-to-point connection and can not be used on
any network hardware of any kind.
The voltages that pass through C.A.S.T. including 48v
phantom power is easily high enough to cause permanent
damage to home routers or computers.
Only connect C.A.S.T.
Outputs to Input and Vice
Versa
Connecting a C.A.S.T. Input to another C.A.S.T. Input can cause
irreparable damage to microphones, speakers, and Cranborne
Audio gear.
Ensure the Cat 5e, Cat 6, and
Cat 7 cable used is fully
shielded
C.A.S.T. 's performance is limited when non-shielded cables
are used and 48v will not work through a cable that is not fully
shielded.
Ensure that all breakout
panels/through connectors
are also fully shielded
If you have RJ45 patch points on the wall of your studio, please
ensure the connectors and internal cabling is fully shielded.
