Overview

The Hosa SH8X4-25 Pro-Conex Stage Box Snake provides a clean, professional way to route audio signals between a stage and a mixing position up to 25 feet away. With 8 XLR send channels, it can handle a typical small-venue microphone setup — drum kit overheads, vocals, guitar amps, and a DI or two — while the 4 TRS return channels allow you to send monitor mixes or other processed signals back to the stage. This eliminates the tangle of individual cables that can make stage setup slow and error-prone.

The stage box end features female 3-pin XLR connectors for inputs and quarter-inch phone jacks for returns, while the fan-out end terminates in nickel-plated male XLR and TRS connectors that plug directly into mixer inputs and aux outputs. The nickel plating resists corrosion over time, which is especially valuable for snakes that get coiled, transported, and reconnected regularly. At 25 feet, this snake is well-suited for rehearsal rooms, small club stages, houses of worship, and recording studios where the mixing position is relatively close to the performers.
