Klotz KY5-090 is a 90-centimetre Y cable from the MiniLink Pro series, terminated with a 3.5 mm TRS mini jack on the source end and two 6.35 mm TS jack plugs on the output end. Built on PCD202 cable — 4.3 mm diameter, 0.22 mm² conductor cross-section, flexible PVC jacket — it splits a stereo signal from a smartphone, tablet, laptop, or audio interface into two independent mono signals for console, audio interface, or amplifier inputs. Every KY5 cable is hand-soldered and passes a 6-stage quality inspection in accordance with ISO 9001:2015.
90 cm balanced split — minimal cable run, maximum routing clarity
Ninety centimetres covers the distance between a mobile device or laptop sitting directly next to a console or interface — on a FOH desk surface, on a keyboard stand, or in a desktop recording setup — without generating unnecessary cable slack that clutters the workspace. The balanced PCD202 construction gives the KY5-090 better EMI rejection than the unbalanced Y cables that dominate this format, which matters in environments where power supplies, chargers, and switching regulators sit in close proximity to the signal path on stage or in the studio. The short length also reduces the total capacitive load on the source output, keeping the signal path as clean as possible.
Extended mini jack shaft and colour coding — reliable connections under working conditions
The moulded splice element at the cable split point reinforces the mechanically critical junction that takes the most stress from repeated connections and coiling — the point where unbranded Y cables typically fail first. The extended mini jack shaft seats fully in smartphones and tablets enclosed in thick protective cases without requiring the case to be removed, relevant whenever quick connection is needed mid-performance or during a fast soundcheck. Gold-plated contacts on solid brass 6.35 mm connector bodies with colour-coded shells — black for left, red for right — prevent channel swap errors when patching into console inputs in dim backstage or studio conditions.
