The STGBX-54-XP is a Main stage input panel consisting of 1-48 female XLR's with dual ground lift switches, 49-54 with male and female XLR's. 4 CPC sub-inputs terminate to 12 male XLR color coded leads each that can be patched in any configuration desired. There are four compartments that are secured with thumb latches down the right side of the face plate for housing unused leads. Three RAMX025 Ramlatch multi-pin outputs for Main, split 1, and split 2. This is a 15 rack space fully enclosed box. The STGBX-54-XP is in answer to the ongoing request for patch-ability in a main stage input box. The advantage and flexibility of being able to patch a channel coming in from a sub stage box to any channel on the main input box is fully realized on festival and “shed” tours where there are many different acts. The face plate is made of 0.125 anodized aircraft grade aluminum and then laser engraved so it will never lose its markings as with silk screen. The rear enclosure is made of 0.062 aircraft grade anodized aluminum and features a knock out on the lower right side that accommodates a 2” HALEX compression clamp. This allows a fan-out to be installed for digital engine applications. All RAMTECH Stage input boxes are made to exacting standards and pass through a rigid quality control system to insure many years of flawless operation. As with all RAMTECH stage boxes Jensen transformers are an available option.
