MX 2 RCA Audio / Video Interconnect Cable – 100 Mtr

MX 2 RCA Audio/Video Interconnect Cable 100 Mtr

The MX 2 RCA Audio/Video Interconnect Cable is a 100-metre bulk length of twin RCA-format interconnect cable for installers, system integrators, and studios that wire audio and composite video runs to their own lengths. The listing describes a professional coaxial construction with double shielding, and the long description adds oxygen-free copper conductors with an aluminium foil shield and a braided copper outer shield under a PVC jacket, with the two channels bonded in a parallel configuration for handling and channel identification. One 100-metre length replaces a chain of joined pre-made cables across a large installation.

Key features

• 100-metre bulk length of 2 RCA audio/video interconnect cable
• Double-shielded coaxial construction per the listing
• Oxygen-free copper conductors per the listing description
• Aluminium foil shield with braided copper outer shield
• Two channels bonded in parallel for easy handling
• PVC jacket suited to routed installation work
• For cutting and terminating to exact run lengths on site

Why installers buy interconnect cable in bulk

Permanent and semi-permanent installations rarely match the lengths on a shop shelf. A multi-zone home, a restaurant music system, a conference facility, or a studio build needs runs of five, twelve, or thirty metres, each ending exactly where the equipment sits. Buying a 100-metre length and cutting each run to measure gives clean, single-piece signal paths with no mid-run joins, consistent cable throughout the system, and a known spare quantity left over for additions and repairs. It is also the economical way to wire larger projects, since the per-metre cost of bulk cable compares favourably with a shelf of individual pre-made leads in assorted lengths, most of which would be the wrong size anyway.

Signal integrity over longer runs

Unbalanced RCA interconnects are more exposed to interference than balanced connections, which is why shielding is the construction detail that matters most on long runs through buildings full of mains wiring, lighting, and other cables. The double-shielded arrangement described for this cable, a foil layer for full coverage together with a braided copper layer, is the standard defence against the hum and noise that otherwise appear when audio runs share containment with power. Good practice completes the picture: route interconnects away from mains cables where the building allows, keep runs as short as the layout permits, and terminate carefully, because on an unbalanced run the quality of the shield connection at each plug is part of the noise performance of the whole link.

Applications and termination

The twin-channel format suits the stereo audio and composite video wiring found across multi-zone home theatre and whole-home audio, background music in restaurants, hotels, and retail spaces, conference rooms, educational institutions and auditoriums, recording studio tie-lines, and composite video runs for legacy CCTV and display equipment. Terminate cut lengths with RCA plugs matched to the cable, maintain channel identification using the bonded pair’s configuration, and test each finished run for continuity and shorts before it is pulled into place. Label both ends of every run as you go; on a project wired from a single bulk length, labelling is the difference between a system that can be serviced in minutes and one that has to be traced cable by cable.

The MX 2 RCA 100-metre interconnect is a double-shielded bulk cable for planned audio and composite video installations, giving integrators one consistent cable for every run in the system.
