Radial has announced the expansion of its Catapult line of analog audio over Cat 5 cable units with the new single rack-mount Catapult TX and Catapult RX.
Both the Catapult TX and Catapult RX offer 12 channels of audio over Cat 5 cable, essentially packing the equivalent of three of Radial’s Catapult 4-channel TX and RX boxes into a single rack space unit.
Each unit has 12 balanced connections, with three Cat 5 output ports available for sending audio. The Catapult Rack TX has 12 locking XLR female connectors, and six EtherCON locking RJ45 connectors (one output and one thru for each set of four inputs). The Catapult Rack RX offers 12 XLR male outputs along with the RJ45 connections.
Both units are compatible with all Catapult modules, including transformer-isolated versions and Radial’s Catapult Mini four-channel unit. Additionally, both offer reversible rack ears for mounting with either the XLR or the Cat 5 connections easily accessible. Locking Neutrik EtherCON ruggedized connectors are provided for secure connections that prevent accidental disconnects.
