CE Compass 3RCA Cable (50 FT) - 3RCA AV RCA Composite Video + 2RCA Stereo Audio M/M Male to Male Dual Shielded RCA Connector Plug Wire Cord

An RCA connector, sometimes called a phono connector or cinch connector, is a type of electrical connector commonly used to carry audio and video signals. The connectors are also sometimes casually referred to as A/V jacks. Composite video (one channel) is an analog video transmission that carries standard definition video typically at 480i or 576i resolution. Video information is encoded on one channel. Composite video is usually in standard formats such as NTSC, PAL, and SECAM and is often designated by the CVBS initialism, for color, video, blanking, and sync, or simply as video. The RCA has been adopted for alternative uses including as a power connector, an RF connector, and occasionally as a connector for loudspeaker cables. Its use as a connector for composite video signals is extremely common. RCA connectors and cable are also commonly used to carry S/PDIF-formatted digital audio, with plugs colored orange to differentiate them from other typical connections. The TNP 3RCA cables are color-coded, yellow for composite video, red for the right audio channel, and white or black for the left channel of stereo audio. This trio (or pair) of jacks can be found on the back of almost all audio and video equipment. One or more sets are often found on the front panel of modern TV sets to facilitate connection of camcorders, other portable video sources and video game consoles.
