D'AddarioModular Snake 8-Channel Breakout Xlr Male
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
An 8-channel XLR male breakout for a modular snake system. For running multiple mic or line signals to a stage box or console.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Sending eight channels from a stage position to a mixer
- Live rigs where separate mic cables get tangled
- Rebuilding a snake system one section at a time
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing female XLR ends to plug microphones in
- Single-channel setups where one mic cable suffices
- Players who want a complete snake in one purchase
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
8 channels
Eight separate signal paths in one run, replacing eight loose cables between stage and console.
Detail 03
Modular design
This is one piece of a system. It mates with a core cable and a matching breakout rather than working alone.
Detail 04
Breakout fan
The eight connectors split out at one end, so channels reach mixer inputs spaced across a panel.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Needs the matching core cable and opposite breakout to form a working snake
- 02Male ends only — confirm your gear takes them
- 03Label your channels before the first gig or patching gets confusing
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I plug microphones straight into this?
No. These are male XLR connectors, which mate with inputs. Microphones have male outputs and need a female end on the cable.
02Is this a complete snake?
No. It is the breakout section of a modular system and needs a core cable plus the matching opposite-end breakout.
03How many channels does it carry?
Eight. Each channel is an independent balanced signal path.
04Which end of the system does this go on?
The end plugging into inputs — typically a mixer, stage box or interface panel that accepts male XLR.
