Unlike the standard rack-mount xIO 4x4, the xIO Stage 4x4 is housed in a durable stage box chassis with XLR connectors designed for stage floor use and frequent connection cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe xIO Stage 4x4 provides the same bidirectional 4x4 Dante I\/O functionality as the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/products\/symetrix-80-0106-xio-4x4\"\u003exIO 4x4 (80-0106)\u003c\/a\u003e in a form factor built for physical durability at the stage edge. XLR inputs accept microphones and line sources from performers or presenters; XLR outputs deliver Dante-routed audio to monitors, IEM transmitters, or local amplifiers. A single Ethernet cable connects the xIO Stage 4x4 to the Dante network and the Symetrix DSP in the equipment rack. All routing is managed in Symetrix Composer within the site file, eliminating the need for individual analog snake cables between the stage and the equipment room.
