That's why we love these terminal-block audio connectors so much. \u003cstrong\u003eNo soldering required! \u003c\/strong\u003eUse stranded or solid core wire and a small screw driver to create custom wiring jigs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the \u003cstrong\u003e3.5mm (1\/8\") 4-Pole (TRRS) Audio Plug Terminal Block\u003c\/strong\u003e. TRRS stands for Tip, Ring, Ring, Sleeve. It has four total conductors - three signal and a ground as opposed to a more common stereo jack's two. This connector is most often used in smartphones \u0026amp; cellphones to provide stereo audio and one mic channel. On a Raspberry Pi the extra connector is used for composite video.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote that the green block labels it as GND-blank-Right-Left which is the most commonly used order. However, it would be more technically correct to just label it Sleeve-Ring-Ring-Tip: goes in the same order as the four contacts on the plug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also have a (matching) 4-Pole Audio Jack Terminal Block!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"technical-details\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse in-md in-lg\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-xs-12\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e As of Wednesday, April 20th 2016, this product is now gold-plated instead of nickel-plated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength (end to end): 40mm \/ 1.57\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 6.5g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire gauge: 30-16AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerminal pitch: 3.5mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul id=\"product-files\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Pi Hut","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51616971424050,"sku":"fap1787257455543","price":1.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0935\/0289\/8482\/files\/35mm-18-4-pole-trrs-audio-plug-terminal-block_1.jpg?v=1787257460","url":"https:\/\/www.mapleborough.shop\/products\/35mm-18-4-pole-trrs-audio-plug-terminal-block","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
