Summary

File information
Description	Raytraced image of two jack plugs, one mono, the other stereo. Numbers on details added, and image cropped afterwards in a graphics software package. Numbers indicate: Sleeve - usually ground Ring - Right-hand channel for stereo signals, negative phase for balanced mono signals, power supply for power-requiring mono signal sources Tip - Left-hand channel for stereo signals, positive phase for balanced mono signals, signal line for unbalanced mono signals Isolating rings
