Can you elaborate?

If I'm getting this right...you put one on both sides of a wall separating two rooms. You can have your room with the mixing and tracking equipment, and you run those cables into the wall. The other room has the musicians performing, and those cables run to the mics that are recording them. It just allows for better separation, and like somebody on here said, you don't have to try to close a door over 20 cables.

Well, kinda. I would say the situation is more likely to be used for monitoring what you're recording in a proper way. It basically avoids a bigass feedback loop with condenser mics if this is done right.

I like to think of it like the phone plugs in your house. The different rooms have different phone lines (mics to tracks), but they all go to the same number - unless you have multiple lines (like a mixer). Just a better way to isolate microphones and "bleeding through" of mics to others...so that you can isolate each instrument or vocal.

Typically you will see the preamp in the CONTROL ROOM so you can make adjustments while listening to the monitors without bleed from the tracking room.
If it has knobs or buttons you want to try to get it in the control room with you. For example, when I record guitars the amp head is in the control room with me and all the stompboxes (if any) are there too. The cabinet will be by itself mic'd in the tracking room.
Also, it helps to keep stuff like amp heads not on top of the speakers... can eliminate any rumblies or weird resonances. Only keep in the room what you intend to record is my motto. I'm not recording the AMP, I'm recording the speakers and cabinet.
