Housing for rca jack

thingiverse

I required an RCA connector at the end of a cable, yet unfortunately all the connectors I possessed were designed for a panel mount connection. Consequently, I created this enclosure to convert a panel mount connector for use with a cable. A dimple is strategically placed inside the bottom of the smaller diameter component to hold the ground wire in place, so when you tighten the nut on the jack, the wire is securely clamped between the jack and the housing. The jacks I had available only featured a lug for the center wire but lacked one for the ground. A larger diameter cap simply snaps onto the smaller piece to form the complete enclosure.
