Page 33: 5-S-4000 System Overview
S-4000 System Overview Concept The S-4000 System brings the digital revolution to the world of audio snakes. Using computer networking technology, the system allows you to transfer 40 channels of high-quality audio over an extremely long distance on a single lightweight cable. The digital advantage also brings with it easy installation, low cost, portability, and pain-free expansion.
Page 34: Things To Know
Things to Know About At the heart of the S-4000 System is the REAC (Roland Ethernet Audio Communication) interface. This proprietary protocol is based on the Ethernet technology that’s used in computer networks, and allows for the transfer of up to 40 channels of digital audio over a single Cat5e Ethernet cable.
Page 35: Ethernet Connectors
5—S-4000 System Overview • Straight-through cables should be used when an Ethernet switching hub is integrated into the system for cable length extension or split applications. (We’ll discuss switching hubs a little later.) Ethernet connection standards recommend using straight-through cables to connect devices to the ports on a switching hub, and crossover cables when connecting hub-to-hub.
Page 36: About Ethernet Switching Hubs
5—S-4000 System Overview About Ethernet Switching Hubs An Ethernet switching hub—sometimes referred to simply as a “switch”—is an interface that allows multiple devices (called “nodes” in Ethernet lingo) to communicate with each other in an Ethernet network. The switching hub has multiple ports with RJ45 receptacles, and each network device is connected to one of these ports.
Page 37: Built-In Redundant Connections
Additionally, the S-4000S provides variable gain preamps on each of its 32 audio inputs. This allows for signal optimization at the source, resulting in the highest A/D conversion quality.

S-4000S’s inputs. After all, you have gain adjustment at the console inputs, right? Well, there are a few very good reasons to adjust the signal level at the S-4000S inputs: S-4000 Digital Snake Owner’s Manual...
Page 39: S-4000H 32X8 Foh Unit
The S-4000H is the front-of-house (FOH) connection interface for the S-4000 System. As such, its I/O configuration is the opposite of the S-4000S—8 audio inputs and 32 audio outputs. As it name suggests, the S-4000H FOH Unit’s main application is near the FOH mixing console.
Page 40: S-4000R Remote Controller
• Input level monitoring—An eight-segment LED meter allows for precise preamp gain adjustment of the S-4000S’s input channels. Additionally, the meter can be used to view signal levels from the S-4000H’s audio inputs. • Signal status—The S-4000R provides signal status indicators for all of the S-4000 System’s 40 input channels.
Page 41: 6-Using The S-4000 System
Recessed Rack-Mounting If desired, the rack-mount brackets on the S-4000S and S-4000H units can be reinstalled so that the units’ face plates are recessed when mounted in a rack. This can be useful for protecting the front panel connections in high-traffic installations, as the connectors plugged into the various inputs and outputs will not protrude from the face of the rack.
Page 42 Use the following procedure to remove and reinstall the S-4000S’s rack-mount brackets for recessed rack-mounting. Turn off the power on all equipment and disconnect all cables from the S-4000S unit.

Page 53: Reac Cable Length Extension
If an Ethernet switching hub with at least four ports is used in-line for cable length extension, the S-4000S and S-4000H MAIN and BACKUP REAC ports can be connected to the ports on a single hub. The proper signal negotiation will be handled within the switching hub. (See the diagram on the following page.)
Page 54: Reac Connection Notes
REAC Connection Notes • The REAC connection can be “hot-swapped”—that is, connections can be made when the S-4000S and S-4000H units are powered on. • The system is designed so that operation will inaudibly switch to the BACKUP REAC port should the MAIN REAC connection fail.
Page 55: Connecting The S-4000R Remote Controller
The REMOTE connections can be hot-swapped—that is, connections can be made when the S-4000S and S-4000H units are powered on. This allows you to move the S-4000R from stage to FOH without shutting down the system’s power first.
Page 56: Audio Connections
�� The S-4000S’s balanced audio I/O is provided on XLR-type jacks. The wiring diagram for these jacks is shown in the following illustration. Make connections after first checking the wiring diagrams of other equipment you intend to connect.
