The Raspberry Pi 4 uses a 4-pole 3.5mm jack to provide both audio and composite video via a single compact connector. To break out this connection for prototyping you'll need a cable like this - a 4-pole 3.5mm jack cable - and something like this SparkFun TTRS breakout board or this terminal block.
4-pole audio cables are also suitable for domestic and professional audio equipment. Perfect to connect a 4-pole jack socket to speaker systems and docks for high-quality low-loss playback.
The TPE Sheath (thermoplastic rubbers) allow for a hi-flex cable, unlike a standard PVC style. TPE cables are not as prone to tangle when in your pocket or bag on the move.
We also sell a 3.5mm jack 4-pole cable with RCA outputs for connecting directly to your TV/audio system.
