CAT TAILS MX STARTER GUIDE
Congratulations on your purchase of your super cool SoundTools CAT Tails.
The CAT Tails will simplify your stage wiring system with its compact,
reliable and disconnectable design. Here are some tips to get you started.
Step 1:
Use channels 1 thru 4 to connect
your XLR lines. The channel
numbers are laser etched on the
connector shells.
Step 2:
Insert a shielded CAT5e/6/7 cable
into the etherCON barrel, then
connect the other end of your
shielded cable to another
CAT Tails, CAT Box, CAT Rack or
other SoundTools RATCAT Family
product.
The Tails
Each individual cable measures
approximately 24” in length.
CAT Tails use cables that are
designed with flexibility while
adhering to AES3 protocols.
Signal Types
Each of the four XLR channels
are isolated, meaning you can
run different types of signal
simultaneously over the same
CAT5e cable. The most common
types of signal include analog
audio, AES3, DMX and intercom.
