RCA Cables

RCA Connectors
An RCA (Phono) connector may be plug or (mating) jack and uses a coaxial cable to transmit audio or video signals.
The male RCA plug consists of a central pin measuring approximately 2mm in diameter,
and an outer shell whose inside diameter is approximately 6mm.
The plug shell is slotted rather than threaded.
The plug shell is connected to the outer conductor, or shield, of the coaxial cable, normally at electrical ground.
The center pin of the plug is connected to the cable center conductor, which carries the signal.
In the jack, the barrel is grounded and the center hole is plated inside to conduct the signal.
