Cranborne Audio N22

N22 is a standalone 4 channel Cat 5 snake and advanced audio distribution system using C.A.S.T.

Standalone Cable Management Tool

Put simply, N22 replaces 4 balanced XLR cables with 1 shielded Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 7 cable over distances of up to 100m.

Featuring our C.A.S.T. system, N22 distributes audio around studios or stages by repurposing the internal copper wires of shielded Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 7 cable to transport balanced analogue audio to and from other C.A.S.T. enabled products - such as another N22.

Advanced C.A.S.T. Breakout Box

Studios already built around a Cranborne Audio interface can use N22’s to transform their studio space.

Place N22 in the live room and audio connected to N22 will appear directly at the interface's inputs ready recording. At the same time, the same C.A.S.T. connection also sends a stereo monitor mix from the interface directly to N22’s balanced outputs.

Using a shielded Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 7 cable instead of 4 XLRs allows you to not only reduce cable spaghetti in your studio but also distribute audio around studios or stages using affordable, readily available network cabling whilst achieving the highest sonic results due to their strict design standards.

Perhaps best of all, N22 is completely passive and requires no external power in order to transport audio at the highest quality level over the longest distances.

Each C.A.S.T. connection on a Cranborne Audio product features unique optimisation to ensure that the maximum signal integrity is transmitted over shielded Cat 5, Cat 6, and Cat 7 cables for distances of up to 100m(330ft) without high-end roll-off and with very low-crosstalk.

Phantom Power With 500R8, 500ADAT, Camden EC2

If you're using a 500R8, 500ADAT, or Camden EC2, simply connect the C.A.S.T. inputs of the device to the C.A.S.T. output of N22, engage 48v on your preamps, and you're ready to record!

N22's bigger brother, N22H features all of the same C.A.S.T. facilities as N22 but with the addition of aa reference-quality, reference-grade headphone amplifier strapped across its outputs. Utilising a design based off of our flagship 500R8, N22H's headphone amplifier is a crucial tool for musicians during tracking, or engineers during mixing/mastering to drive their headphones with plenty of clean power.

Connect N22 and N22H together and now you can use the C.A.S.T. system to deploy headphone amplification where it is needed in your studio - right beside the musician.

With a flat Frequency Response from 0.8Hz to above 250kHz and ultra-low distortion (0.0009% THD+N, 100 kOhm load), N22H can power headphones with clean, transparent power during critical listening, mixing, and mastering. There’s also enough power (up to 950mW per-ear) to drive headphones at high-volumes during tracking - perfect for loud drummers!

N22H can also be powered using the included 9V DC power supply or a 9v battery for up to 10 hours of headphone amplification when power isn’t available nearby.

Any Cranborne Audio product that features C.A.S.T. connectors can be used in part of a great system. Connect our Camden EC2’s C.A.S.T. OUT port to an N22 or N22H and you can send Camden EC2’s preamps directly to the interface's inputs ready for further processing and recording - allowing you to position Camden EC2 in the live room whilst recording its preamp output in the control room using the N22's outputs.

You can also connect Camden EC2’s C.A.S.T. IN port to another N22 or N22H - allowing you to easily relocate Camden EC2’s preamp inputs to a remote location such as a vocal booth, live room, hallway, or reverb chamber using shielded Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 7 cable as cheap, high-quality, analogue multicore.
