- Audio Cable TRRS - 18" (pigtail)SKU: CAB-11580 Brand: SparkfunTRRS connectors are the 3.5mm audio-style connectors that you see on some phones, MP3 players and development boards. TRRS stands for “Tip, Ring, Ring, Sleeve,” which reflects the fact that, unlike a standard stereo connector, this actually has three conductors and a ground. Some devices use the extra conductor for a microphone (like hands-free headsets) or to carry a video signal (like in some MP3/MP4 players) If you’re hacking on something that has a 4-conductor audio jack, being able to plug straight in will keep your build clean and simple.

It can be used to make connections between devices with 0.1" 3-pin male headers, such as between RC servo controllers or RC receivers and motor controllers with an RC interface. It can also be a convenient way to connect various 3-pin sensors to a robot controller. The cable’s conductors each consist of 60 strands, making it more flexible than standard servo cables.
- Servo Y Splitter Cable 12" Female - 2x MaleSKU: POLOLU-2182 Brand: PololuThis 12-inch (300-mm), flat Y-cable is typically used to connect two servos to a single servo port . It has 22-AWG wires terminated on one end by a “JR”-style female connector and on the other by two Futaba J male connectors, allowing it to work in either system or as an adapter between systems. The split occurs close to the cable’s JR input, so the two male ends can be separated by up to approximately 18" (450 mm). The cable’s conductors each consist of 60 strands, making it more flexible than standard servo cables.
Slip Rings
A slip ring is perfect for sending a signal from a stationary spot through a rotating point/structure. We have a range of slip rings for your project.
