Description
Hosa Edge 8-Channel Analogue Snake DB25 to XLR3F 13.1 ft / 4M
Premium Components. Proven Value. The no-nonsense choice for engineers who require exacting specifications, 8 channels of balanced analog audio, and genuine Neutrik XLR Male connectors.
Structural Integrity. Essential Connectivity. Hosa Edge 8-Channel Analog Audio Snakes are designed for audio professionals who demand uncompromising signal integrity. Whether sending tracks to a summing mixer, connecting to powered monitors, or patching into a console, these snakes provide the transparent signal transfer required for critical audio environments.
Performance Without Hype: Hosa Edge relies on proven material science. We prioritize the specific engineering standards that define professional cabling, ensuring seamless integration into any facility.
Proven Material Science: We utilize XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene) insulation—the industry benchmark for low capacitance and thermal stability—ensuring our cables match the transient response and solderability of established studio wire.
Optimized Signal Path: With 24 AWG (0.18 mm²) Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) conductors, Hosa Edge meets and often exceeds the copper mass specifications of standard studio interconnects.
Ultra-Low Noise Floor: A precision-engineered 58-strand spiral shield matches the density of top-tier bulk cabling, ensuring effective RFI/EMI rejection even in complex RF environments.
By combining these premium materials with robust metal DB25 hoods and genuine Neutrik® XX-Series connectors, Hosa Edge delivers uncolored signal transfer for demanding studio environments.
Key Features
Genuine Neutrik® Connectors: XX-Series XLR Female plugs (Black Metal Housing / Gold Contacts) provide the industry’s highest mating cycle durability and contact integrity.
Die-Cast Metal Hoods: Robust DB25 housing provides superior EMI shielding and physical protection.
Optimized Conductor Gauge: 24 AWG (0.18 mm²) Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) ensures maximum signal clarity.
Studio-Standard Dielectric: XLPE insulation offers low capacitance and consistent thermal stability.
