The EWI MTFM-12 series snake is a professional
quality dual fantail XLR patch snake.
This snake is typically used to extend a snake, used as a drop
snake, or used for patching effects. Longer versions are
commonly used for drive snakes.
The male XLR fantail end has a mesh
grip strain relief. On each XLR fantail, the channels are clearly
labeled with indelible ink printed on the tubing at each connector.
The channels are labeled 1 through 12, and they are color coded in
groups of 4 each. The groups are bundled with 3 short, loose
fitting pieces of clear loom that can be slid up or down the fantail
as desired. This helps keep the fantails from getting tangled
and facilitates easy channel identification. The fantail length is
about 20" giving you about a 36" to 38" functional spread.
The 75 ft., 100 ft., and 200 ft. versions are
typically used as drive snakes to send the return signal from the FOH mix position to the amp racks on stage.
These lengths have approximately 22" fantails, and a mesh grip strain relief
hanger at each fantail.
The cable itself is constructed with EWI SMM
series cable with 99.98% pure 22ga. high strand count copper
conductors and individually jacketed pairs shielded by 100% coverage
spiral shield on each pair. The connectors are all EWI
ES3B-GDP XLR models, black anodized cast zinc XLR bodies with gold
plated contacts.
