Gold-Plated RCA Male Plug Connector for CCTV Audio Coax Cable

The Gold-Plated RCA Male Plug Connector for CCTV Audio Coax Cable puts an RCA male end on a coaxial or audio cable. You use it to link CCTV microphones, DVRs (digital video recorders), amplifiers and other RCA-compatible equipment.

What the specs mean in practice

• RCA male plug: the cable end plugs into an RCA socket on the device.
• Gold-plated contacts: better conductivity and less signal loss at the connection point.
• Screw-on termination: you assemble it on the cable end without specialised soldering equipment.
• Metal housing: protects against mechanical wear and corrosion.
• Signal types: analogue audio and composite video.

Where it fits

Typical jobs are a CCTV microphone feeding a DVR, auxiliary audio runs, and analogue AV wiring in surveillance or structured cabling work.

What else you need

The plug is only the termination. You also need:

1. A coaxial or audio cable to fit it to.
2. A device with an RCA socket at each end of the run, such as a microphone and a DVR.
3. A recorder that has an audio input, if you are recording sound.

Check that your recorder's audio input is RCA before you order. Some units use other connector types.
