Radial Engineering Catapult RX4M

The Radial Engineering Catapult RX4M is an innovative audio snake system designed for professional sound engineers who need to send mic-level signals across distances with ease. Utilizing the convenience of Cat5 or Cat6 Ethernet cables, this receiver module routes up to four channels of analog audio via a single RJ45 connector, transforming these into XLR outputs. Four of these are direct outputs, and another four offer transformer isolation for noise reduction. This makes the RX4M perfect for live sound applications, particularly in large venues, by allowing the use of affordable, lightweight Ethernet cables instead of bulky multi-channel snakes. Featuring rugged construction and versatile connectivity, the RX4M ensures clear, uninterrupted audio transmission and is compatible with other Catapult modules for flexible, customized setups.
