The SLS-3 is a speaker cable splitter/combiner patch panel, primarily for installation amplifier racks. The SLS-3 is essentially three Cable Cube DISTRO/MATRIX units in a 2U rack mount panel. Using Neutrik speaker cable jumpers, the amplifier outputs conveniently patch into the front panel. The output or rear panel then combines channels A1 & A2 into a single NL4 connector providing a Bi-amp output marked 1-2. This is repeated for channels A 3-4, B 1-2, B 3-4 C 1-2 & C 3-4. Each of these Bi-amp NL4 outputs are then combined together in their respective A,B & C groupings, into a single NL8 connector that can be used to feed an 8 conductor cable with an NL8FC connector allowing flexible patching of 4 full range or two Bi-amp NL4 output connectors in a stage box, by moving a single NL8 connection. An alternative use of the SLS-3 is to take an NL8 patch cable from a four channel amplifier that has an NL8 output and patch it into one of the rear panel NL8 connectors that fan out into four separate NL4 connectors (Pin 1+ & 1- only) for 4 full range speakers within each group.
