Corresponding mono pin will be called as TS pin as it has only tip and sleeve connections and no ring. RCA connector was from Radio Corporation of America. 6.35 mm pins are used in microphones with cords. Base of the microphone has an XLR pin, which is connected to an XLR socket on the cable. Other end of the cable has a 6.35 mm TS pin. Adaptors are there for converting 3.5 mm to 6.35 mm and vice versa, depending on the need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are several types of audio connectors.
