The Catapult Rack RX and TX are the latest additions to Radial’s popular lineup of Cat 5 compatible analog audio snakes. These passive devices utilize the four pairs of twisted wire within Cat 5 ethernet cables to send analog audio over long distances without requiring bulky and expensive multi-channel snake cables.

Analog audio over Cat 5 wiring

The Catapult Rack TX and RX act like a typical multi-channel analog audio snake; they allow you to send mic or line-level signals from one location to another without signal loss, noise, or interference, and without any digital audio conversion needed. What makes the Catapult system unique is that it utilizes Cat 5 Ethernet cable, which is widely available, lightweight, and economical. Simply connect one shielded Cat 5 cable for every four channels of audio and deliver it to any other Radial Catapult module – it will utilize the analog conductors in the cable to deliver four balanced audio lines to any destination.

1 Rackspace, 3 times the channel count

The Catapult Rack units operate like three modules in one chassis. Since each Cat 5 Ethernet cable can carry four channels, the 12 XLRs on each Catapult Rack are split into three banks, each with their own noise-eliminating ground lift switch and RJ45 Ethernet jacks on the rear panel. You can use three Ethernet cables to connect all 12 channels to a single location, or split them off to any of the Radial Catapult stage boxes, providing you with a fully customizable audio snake system that can connect multiple destinations at once and even include transformer isolation where needed.

Rugged and flexible

The Catapult Rack TX and RX are built to handle the toughest pro touring environments, and like all Catapult modules they include Neutrik etherCON RJ45 connectors. These allow you to use compatible cables with a protective metal shell around the Ethernet connector that protects against accidental disconnection while also preventing damage to the RJ45 plug itself. Another useful feature on the Catapult Rack is the addition of reversible rack ears, which can be mounted on either side of the chassis, so you can have the XLRS or the Ethernet connections facing outwards as necessary.

Straight-wire passive operation

Catapult Rack modules require no power to operate, and since they keep the signal in the analog realm, no digital conversion is necessary. Straight-wire connection from each bank of XLRs to the RJ45 connector on a Cat 5 cable ensures that your audio passes through without coloration or distortion.

The Catapult Family

All Radial Catapult modules are compatible with each other and sold individually, so you can select whichever combination best suits your needs. The Catapult Mini RX and TX can be used together as a pair, creating a compact 4-channel audio snake. However, if you prefer to have a stage box to plug microphones into, but want a compact breakout cable that fits in the case with the mixer, combine the Catapult TX4 with the Catapult Mini RX. With the addition of the Catapult Rack units, you can also incorporate equipment racks into your setups for greater flexibility, with each rack unit essentially functioning as three 4-channel modules in a 1RU rackspace. With a wide variety of modules available, you can customize your stage or recording studio setup to suit any application.

Applications

  • Using the Catapult Rack TX with the Catapult Rack RX - The Catapult Rack makes it easy to feed 12 channels of analog audio over just three economical Cat 5 cables. Leave your bulky, heavy and expensive multichannel audio snakes at home for your next gig.
  • Create stage zones with the Catapult Rack - Set the Catapult Rack RX at your PA console and place three compact Catapult Mini TX units at different zones on stage. This cuts down on cable clutter across the stage and streamlines your setups and teardowns.
  • Add flexibility with the Catapult TX4 - Combining the Catapult Rack RX with Catapult TX4 stage boxes adds flexibility to match any setup. The TX4 features both male and female XLR connectors so they can be used for sends or returns, or the XLR thru connectors can feed a monitor console.
  • Using the Catapult Rack TX with Isolated Catapult Modules - Send audio to three separate zones by using the Catapult Rack TX and the transformer-isolated Catapult RX4L modules together as a return snake. The isolated outputs allow you to send audio to multiple power amps for example without the need to worry about ground loop noise.

Features

  • Send or receive up to 12 channels of balanced audio over Cat 5 cabling
  • Easily combines with any other Radial Catapult modules 
  • Robust steel enclosure and locking Neutrik etherCON connectors
  • Reversible rack ears for optimal configuration with any setup

More than a daily grind
Color: Purple
We are very happy so far, working very well. The grind is even and easy to adjust with a simple turn of the screw on the base of the grinder. The automatic light is a nice feature, especially as I am 66 and my eyes are not what they used to be. Once I turned the on button to face front, I'm no longer triggering a grind just by picking these up. (our last grinders trigger was on the top of the unit}. They feel well constructed and are easy to fill. My wife absolutely loves the color (purple). will update this in a couple months for durability, but for the price so far (1 month) 5 stars

Electric grinders
Color: Black/Black
Easy to refill. We use pink Himalayan salt and the grinder does well. It seems to struggle a bit with the peppercorns bit still gets the job done. The light is nice. We have enjoyed the ease of use. It also looks nice on the counter. The holder is great as it catches any fine debris after use. I purchased this one as it uses actual batteries and not something else I have to charge. They have been used daily for 2 months and have not needed to change the batteries yet.

I Feel Like a Fancy Chef Every Time I Season My Fries
Color: Green
This Salt and Pepper Grinder, Electric Automatic has officially upgraded my kitchen from “microwave expert” to “TV cooking show contestant.” One button press and suddenly I’m seasoning food with dramatic confidence like I know exactly what I’m doing. The automatic grinding works smoothly and quickly, and I love how consistent the grind size is. Whether I want a fine sprinkle or a coarser grind, it handles both perfectly. The motor is surprisingly strong, and it doesn’t struggle or jam like some cheaper grinders I’ve used before. The design also looks sleek and modern sitting on the counter. It feels comfortable in the hand, easy to refill, and the clear container makes it simple to see when it’s time for more salt or pepper. Huge bonus: no wrist workout required. My manual grinder used to make me feel like I was training for an arm wrestling tournament. I’ve been using it daily, and now even scrambled eggs get five star restaurant treatment. Friends noticed it immediately and asked where I got it which made me feel unnecessarily sophisticated for someone eating frozen pizza. Overall, convenient, stylish, and genuinely useful. If you want effortless seasoning with a little extra kitchen drama, this grinder is a winner
