A plug and socket for coaxial cable. RCA connectors are used for analog audio signals (see analog audio). They are also used for digital audio (see S/PDIF) and analog video (see composite video).

It often refers to early TV sets that accepted signals from an antenna or VCR only via a coaxial cable. Modern TVs have coax inputs plus inputs that use RCA phono and HDMI cables. See F connector.
