S-video cable ShiverPeaks BS90022-5 5 m RCA Black Yellow

The ShiverPeaks BS90022-5 5 m S-video cable with RCA connectors in black and yellow provides a straightforward solution for transmitting composite video signals between consumer electronics. Designed for home AV setups, the cable combines a five-meter length with standard RCA terminations to connect devices such as DVD players, older gaming consoles, VCRs and some camcorders to TVs, monitors or AV receivers. The construction focuses on consistent signal path and reduced interference for stable picture quality across typical analog video applications.

Advantages

The cable's five-metre length gives flexibility in device placement without requiring adapters or extensions. Standard RCA connectors ensure compatibility with a wide range of legacy and contemporary audio‑visual equipment. The dual-colour design (black and yellow) simplifies identification of video channels during installation. Durable outer insulation and molded connector ends help protect contacts and maintain reliable connections over repeated use.

Suitable for

• Connecting DVD players to TVs or AV receivers
• Linking legacy gaming consoles to display devices
• Connecting VCRs or camcorders with RCA video outputs
• Temporary AV setups where a 5 m cable run is required

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 m
• Connector type: RCA to RCA (video)
• Colour: Black and Yellow
• Signal type: Composite video (analog)
• Construction: Molded RCA plugs with insulated cable jacket

How to use

Identify the video output on the source device and the corresponding video input on the display. Plug the yellow RCA connector into the video output jack of the source device and the matching connector into the video input of the TV or receiver. Ensure connectors are fully seated to avoid picture degradation. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends or kinks and keep it clear of strong electrical interference sources. For multi‑channel setups, pair with appropriate audio cables to complete the connection.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium analog video runs up to 5 m; for longer distances or digital sources, consider alternative cabling (e.g., HDMI) appropriate to the device capabilities. Keep connectors clean and store the cable coiled without tight bends to extend service life.
