Audio Cable RCA 2 x RCA ShiverPeaks BS40053 0.2 m Blue

The ShiverPeaks BS40053 audio cable is a compact 0.2 m interconnect designed to link audio components with RCA sockets. It has one female RCA connector and two male RCA plugs, making it suitable for splitting or combining stereo signals in short-distance setups. The conductor is copper and the contacts are gold-plated to support reliable signal transfer and reduced contact corrosion. The cable's blue jacket provides visual identification in multi-cable installations and a short length minimizes signal loss and clutter behind equipment.

Advantages

This audio cable combines a short 0.2 m length with copper conductors and gold-plated RCA contacts for stable analogue signal transmission. The female-to-double-male configuration allows flexible connections between devices such as players, receivers and amplifiers. The blue outer jacket improves cable management and the compact design reduces excess cable in confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting a single mono or combined stereo output to two RCA inputs over a short distance
• Linking audio components in home theatre or hi-fi systems where cables are routed behind equipment
• Temporary or rack installations requiring clear visual identification of signal paths

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.2 m
• Connector configuration: 1 x female RCA to 2 x male RCA
• Conductor material: copper
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: blue

How to use

Insert the female RCA connector onto the source device's male RCA output, then connect the two male RCA plugs to the intended input jacks. Ensure connectors are aligned and pushed firmly until seated to maintain a secure electrical connection. Use the short cable length for connections where devices are close together to avoid unnecessary slack. Disconnect by grasping the connector housings rather than pulling the cable jacket to preserve strain relief and connection integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this short RCA cable for direct, close-proximity connections and avoid running it alongside high-power mains cables to reduce potential interference. Inspect gold-plated contacts periodically and clean gently with a dry cloth if oxidation or dirt appears. Do not bend the cable sharply near the connectors to prevent damage to the conductor or shielding.
