Patch cords are cables commonly used to transmit electrical signals.
These cables typically connect various electronic devices or components, facilitating signal transmission between them. Patch cords are usually short and straight, equipped with connectors at one or both ends.
They find widespread use in wiring and connections for audio equipment, networking devices, and other electronic equipment. For instance, patch cords are essential in connecting cables to patch panels or devices like patch bays, which allow for the reconfiguration of signal paths by linking different audio equipment or signal processing units.
