ABSTRACT:
A plug in connector for audio communication cables, particularly suitable for stereophonic systems. The connector has four terminals, two male and two female, there being two male varieties and two female varieties. Each variety encompasses a particular combination of diameter and length, matching audio industry standard size varieties. In a second embodiment, each terminal threads to the body. This enables a much wider combination of terminals, which may range from all male to all female, as well as including all possible dimensional varieties. The novel connector is generally cruciform, there being a parallelepiped body from which the terminals project. In a first embodiment of the body, the terminals project from opposed faces, all terminals occupying one plane. In another embodiment, the body is generally octagonal, wherein short sides alternating with relatively wider sides. The novel connector enables unparalleled versatility in mating diverse audio cables.
