Mamba AES/EBU Digital Snake System
The Mamba AES/EBU Digital Snake is an extension of award winning Mamba digital snakewith AES/EBU digital interface. You can use this as a simple point to point system to transport up to 48 x 48 channels (24 x 24 AES) over a single CAT-5/6 or Fiber. Can also be connected to a standard Analog Mamba system to mix and match depending on your application. For example, you can combine an analog stage box with AES near your digital mixer at the FoH. Clock sync is supported with EXT WC input and EXT WC output. Mamba AES digital snake comes with the same key features supported in our original Mamba such as cable (fail over) redundancy, compatibility with standard Ethernet switches, GbE VLAN, Fiber etc. The Mamba AES is a compact 1U rack mount and fits all your 24 x 24 AES digital audio needs using
a single CAT-5/6 cable or Fiber.

"We installed a Mamba 32LLP system in our new multipurpose building and couldn't be happier. The sound is crystal clear with no
discernable latency. We are now looking to retrofit our sanctuary with another Mamba system. We won't bother looking any further. This is a great buy on an excellent product", Lee Leatherwood, Media Director, Dilworth Church of God, Empire, AL
"The product arrived on time. It worked straight out of the box and the vendor contacted me to see if everything was working fine and took the time to share some impertinent information with me about other products of my concern. I have never experienced such awesome customer service as this in a very long time!!!", William D Parker Jr
"We reviewed few systems in market and selected Mamba based on lowest latency, highest audio quality, plug and play and unbeatable price. Mamba digital snake system is worth every penny and it is the best value for your money", Dan owner CLS Alaska
Just wanted to let you know that we installed the snake on Thursday and it worked like a dream. There is no radio noise left in the system and the sound is clean and quiet. We tried the competitors version, which is twice as much, and there is no difference in the sound quality. Thanks again for all your help with this. I am sure that we will be contacting you again to get another one. Richard, Brighton Music
"The 32X32 is wonderful. A great piece of gear. I love the product finish too", Jeremy Laurence, Lakeland college Alberta, Canada.
"Want to let you know that the City of Aiken's Mamba digital snake is working, and working very well! We have had a dedication program and three of our weekly Monday night concerts. The system has worked like a champ. It is great to be able to connect 16 sends plus 8 returns by just plugging in a couple of Cat5 cables. Beats lugging giant copper snakes! The system sounds invisible, to the point that we almost forget that we don't have the mics plugged directly into the mixer. Everyone likes the sound of our new system, and the Mamba snake plays a large part in that good sound", Steve Peterson City of Aiken, SC
"My biggest worry, latency, is not going to be an issue with these units. It is in the sub millisecond range as you indicated, and not audible/perceivable to the people I have had listen. Sound quality is excellent, but I would expect 96k to sound good. The units seem to work equally well on hard copper, 100mb media converters, and our GbE linksys VLAN switches with Fiber. All based on the performance and cost effectiveness of the Mamba, I am very happy with my purchase so far.." Greg Bellotte, SLC describing the use of Mamba 32LLP over GbE/Fiber for live PGA golf tour TV broadcast
"What a relief that we are able to remove the bulky 64 channel analog snake and clear up huge conduit space & mess. Also, Mamba splitter feature allowed us to remove all the analog transformer boxes for 64 channels. The stage area is very clean and the new Digital snake sound system occupies very less space. Thanks for the great product that is plug and play and reliable. Able to connect our own micpre's was a big plus", David Sims, Victorious Life Church FL.
"I look forward to adding Mamba to our equipment, and not having to carry a 200 ft 32 channel analog snake. Thanks very much for the great service, and hopefully we'll be adding some more gear in the not to distant future. I did indeed run some tests, the unit is amazingly quiet. The sound is excellent. What a great value, thanks very much!. we've done several events with the snake, fantastic on every one. Exceptional piece of gear", --Steve Treutlein, Sefcik Production, NJ
"We bought this system to make set up and teardown easier. My Pastor is extremely happy with the clarity of sound that we are getting as well. It sounds so much cleaner. We are able to lower the decibels and hear everything better. This is truly a win-win situation. Thanks again!" -- Kevin Nordmeyer, New Day Church, MN
"We needed a reliable snake that was easy to setup, take apart and transport. We found that the Mamba offered the most dependable, feature rich snake for the price." Andy Brown, Dulles Community Church
"Using the Mamba enabled us to quickly setup a link from the stage mixer to our recording setup. The simplicity of using one CAT-5 cable made assembling & disassembling a snap, and the built in redundancy was really important, with all of the organizers, sponsors and volunteers running around creating the potential for cable damage." - Brent McMicking, Garden Recording Studios (describing
use for ICER air event at AT&T Ballpark), SF
