I'm sorting out some collected stuff, and found this cable.
At one end it is a regular phone cable, with a coupler that a phone cord would plug into. Then, about 50 feet later (!), it ends with three skinny wires that each have an RCA plug on them - red, yellow, white.
I am very curious about this critter!
Thanks!
The only thing I can think of is a phone connector to a receiver for a satellite dish. Old time. And that is a wild @$$ guess.
Sounds like a proprietary terminal cable. DEC used RCA connectors for external monitors in some cases, and used cat-3 for keyboard connectors to the terminals. There were so many proprietary standards for connectors and cables before PS2, SCSI and other common connectors became standards it's hard to tell.
If in doubt - throw it out! :D
pom - it might make a good cat toy with those dangly ends!
You beat me to it! I was going to suggest it was a patented cat toy cable.:D
