Frequently Asked Questions

• What does 16/4 mean? It indicates 16 input lines from the stage to the mixing console and 4 return lines from the mixing console to the stage.
• Are the 6.3 mm jacks TS or TRS? The manufacturer specifies " 6.3 mm jack " without detailing the type. For balanced routing, check the standard required by your equipment and use appropriate adapters or cables if necessary.
• Is it compatible with digital mixers? Yes, as long as the connection is XLR or 6.3 mm jack, compatibility is direct at the connector level.
• Can it be used outdoors? It's a cable and box assembly; occasional outdoor use is possible, but it's recommended to protect it from moisture and abrasion and use cable trays or conduits.

Usage and care recommendations

• Label inputs and returns to speed up microphone setup and troubleshooting .
• Avoid stress on connectors; when winding, follow a wide and constant loop to increase its lifespan.
• Keep the connectors clean and dry; periodically check solder joints and clamping clips.
