prices on 45 models3.5 mm - 2RCA (RCA)
— a cable that has a 3.5 mm mini-Jack connector or plug at one end, and one or two RCA plugs at the other (the specific type of 3.5 mm connector and the number of RCAs should be specified separately in each case).The 3.5 mm mini-Jack port is popular primarily in portable and computer equipment — pocket players, mobile phones, PC and laptop sound cards. The mini-jack plug, in turn, is used in the vast majority of headphones and headsets, it is also popular in computer speakers and portable acoustics. In all cases, we are talking about an analogue audio signal; accordingly, the RCA connectors on the other end are used specifically for linear analogue audio.
But the design and, accordingly, the use of cables of this type may be different. So, the “3.5 mm plug — 2RCA” option is designed to connect an external signal source (for example, the same smartphone) to a linear or other similar audio system input. A cable with a 3.5 mm jack and 2 RCA plugs, in turn, is an adapter for connecting headphones or computer acoustics to the RCA line output (in case the audio system does not have its own mini-Jack socket). And the combination of a mini-Jack plug with one RCA connector can be useful for outputting multi-channel sound from a computer to external speakers: many modern audio cards have 6 or even more 3.5 mm outputs that can work similarly to RCA when playing multi-channel sound, according to the “one channel per connector” principle.
