Endpoint map

Start with what is physically represented

The passive cable is an interconnect between documented balanced phone-jack output/input roles; the source/destination is set by equipment.

Join pro-audio equipment whose manuals specify compatible balanced TRS connections.

ConstructionDocumented

24AWG ×2 oxygen-free copper with 90% OFC spiral shield and REAN TRS plugs.

Evidence: C994A

Fallback / lower modesConditional

An unbalanced endpoint or insert jack needs its own wiring guidance; a TRS shell does not force balanced operation.

Evidence: C994A

Environment and handlingConditional

Touring/live-sound use is described; no wet-location, burial or building-route approval is established.

Evidence: C994A

Worked selection example

A balanced line output into a documented balanced line input is the intended class of use; verify nominal level, input range and wiring in both equipment manuals.

Common confusion: A single TRS plug may carry balanced mono, stereo headphones or an insert send/return on different equipment. The cable cannot decide which.

Next check: Read the jack's signal assignment and level, choose the exact length, and keep headphones, line, instrument and speaker roles separate.

Capability ledger

Six questions kept separate

DataDocumented

Named series is intended for balanced phone-jack audio interconnection. It does not establish a stereo headphone or headset microphone mapping.

Evidence: C994A

Power / chargingConditional

Speaker-power delivery and phantom-power applicability are not established; do not use it as a power-amplifier-to-passive-speaker lead by plug similarity.

Evidence: C994A

VideoNot Applicable

No video transport represented.

ConversionPassive

24AWG ×2 oxygen-free copper with 90% OFC spiral shield and REAN TRS plugs.

Evidence: C994A

Length / reachDocumented

A named series, no selected length in the inspected page. Select the exact SKU/length and endpoint conditions; no universal analog-audio reach is asserted.

Evidence: C994A

Markings / certificationConditional

HSS series and TRS identify the published construction; they do not tell you the signal level or jack assignment of the attached equipment.

Evidence: C994A

Explicit unknowns
  • No physical sample, electrical/optical measurement or hardware interoperability test was performed.
  • Read the jack's signal assignment and level, choose the exact length, and keep headphones, line, instrument and speaker roles separate.
