XVive PX-B 3-Channel Snake: Stage-Ready Multi-Channel Audio Routing

The XVive PX-B 3-Channel Snake delivers efficient and organized audio routing for personal monitor systems, making it a practical tool for musicians who demand direct control over their stage mix. Designed to distribute up to three XLR signals and supply power to personal mixers via a single Cat 5 cable, this unit reduces cable mess and increases setup speed on any stage or rehearsal floor. For performers and engineers aiming for tidy and dependable monitoring systems, the PX-B 3-Channel Snake proves essential.

What Sets the PX-B 3-Channel Snake Apart

Instead of using multiple cables, this model combines three XLR inputs and PoE power into a single Cat 5 output, cutting down on stage clutter while maintaining robust, interference-free connectivity. Three XLR to 1/4” TS adapters make it simple to connect to a wider range of audio sources, not just mixing consoles.

Connection and Power—Practical Benefits

Musicians and engineers benefit from simplified audio and power delivery, reducing tangled cables and connection issues. Running a single Cat 5 cable for both signal and power means setup and teardown move quickly for bands or gigging drummers.

• Inputs: 3 x XLR Female — accommodates three separate audio sources for custom monitor mixes.
• Output: 1 x Cat 5 (RJ45) — all channels and PoE are merged into one streamlined cable.
• With a power input of 5V/2A PoE (or optional 9V/2A adapter), remote powering of compatible mixers is enabled for more versatile setups.

Flexible Setup for Modern Stages

Balanced XLR for each channel and adapters for unbalanced 1/4” TS connections ensure the PX-B adapts to many mixing desks or audio sources. This flexibility suits live bands, rehearsal spaces, and studio musicians who need a scalable monitoring solution.

• Adapters included (3 x XLR to 1/4'' TS) let users work with both balanced and unbalanced signals.
• Cat 5 Cable Length: Up to 7.62 m (25 ft) included; supports longer runs — suitable for spacious stage layouts.

Reliable and Durable for Frequent Use

Thanks to robust connectors and a compact form factor, this model withstands stage wear and daily transport. Accidental disconnects are avoided, and clean audio remains even with long cable runs in busy environments.

• Metal chassis and locking connectors provide reliability for live performance.
• Clear monitoring at high volumes is supported by low-noise operation.

Compare and Expand—Versatility for Every Setup

Unlike traditional multicore snakes, the PX-B offers a lightweight and flexible alternative, especially when integrated with XVive's modular PX personal mixing system. Compatible with PX-A mixers and expandable via the PX-H Hub, the system can grow from solo acts to full ensembles as needed.

• Expansion supports up to five PX-A mixers via a PX-H hub for multi-user setups.
• Industry-standard monitor amps or IEM solutions can be paired with the included adapters for maximum flexibility.
