A 3.5mm audio cable (aux cables) connects an audio input device to your car speakers, such as an MP3 player or smartphone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are available in several lengths depending on your requirements and preferences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today’s article focuses on the best 3.5mm cable and the factors you can consider when buying one.<\/p>\n\n\n
Here are a few criteria to find a preferable 3.5mm audio cable<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n Different materials usually contribute to a connector’s quality<\/a>, for instance;<\/p>\n\n\n\n Generally, long audio cables are more susceptible to tangling, interference, and signal deterioration. Thus, opt for the minimum possible length for your particular application. For example, a 2-to-6ft audio cable should suit your car’s needs.<\/p>\n\n\n Heavier-gauge conductors often enhance the total cable capacitance<\/a>, quantified in pF\/ft (picofarads per foot). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Higher capacitance can alter the voltage signal conveyed via the conductors, thus distorting the audio regenerated by headphones (both closed- and open-back), monitors, or speakers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Furthermore, capacitance reduces if the insulation is thick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jacket and Insulation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The material that covers the bare copper conductor within a cable is an insulator, and examples include nylon, polyethylene, and PVC. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Contrarily, a\u00a0jacket is a\u00a0material that covers the entirety of the audio cable (conductor, insulator,\u00a0shielding). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Undeniably, PVC\u00a0is an excellent option for a long-lasting and dependable jacket material. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Also, audio cables with Nylon braids as jackets are more robust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Conductors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Conductors<\/a> send audio transmissions to speakers from audio devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Manufacturers usually place cotton between shields and conductors to prevent static discharge interference and friction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Shielding layer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Audio cable shielding is a woven copper spiral or mat that manufacturers wrap around the audio cable’s primary conductors. Shielding blocks electromagnetic interference from radiation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The barrier prevents outside pops and noise from interrupting your songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Generally, aluminum laminate foil, tin-plated copper, and pure copper make up the most used shielding materials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Denser shielding weaves reject more RF radiation<\/a> and noise even though manufacturing is costly and takes longer.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\nConnector quality <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n
