Calrad 55-1000s-12 Stereo Rca Patch Cord 12 Feet

Product Description

The CALRAD 55-1000s-12 is a dual-RCA stereo audio patch cord designed for connecting audio components in residential and commercial AV installations. The cable runs 12 feet in length and terminates in RCA male plugs at both ends. Molded plug construction at each end provides strain relief and a secure connection interface. The flat zip-style cable layout keeps runs organized and manageable in tight equipment racks, behind wall panels, or along baseboards. This cord is commonly installed by AV technicians, electricians, and low-voltage integrators working on audio distribution or source-switching setups.

This patch cord is suited for stereo line-level audio signal routing between source components and amplifiers, receivers, or distribution equipment. Typical applications include connecting CD players, tuners, preamps, or other RCA-output devices to downstream audio gear. The 12-foot length provides enough reach for most equipment rack or shelf installations without requiring extensions. The flat cable profile makes it a practical choice in installations where cable routing space is limited.

Key Features

• Dual RCA male to dual RCA male configuration for stereo line-level audio
• 12-foot cable length suits rack, shelf, and wall-panel installations
• Molded plugs at each end for strain relief and connection durability
• Flat zip-style cable design for organized, low-profile routing

Compatibility

Designed as a standard RCA stereo patch cord compatible with any audio component using dual RCA line-level inputs or outputs.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by AV technicians or low-voltage integrators and requires no special tools beyond basic hand tools for cable management. Power down or mute all connected audio equipment before connecting or disconnecting RCA cables to avoid signal pops that can damage speakers or amplifiers. Verify left and right channel polarity at both ends before securing cables in a finished installation. Follow applicable low-voltage wiring guidelines where local codes apply.
