Klotz AY5-0100 is a 1-metre Y cable from the AY5 lightweight series, terminated with a 3.5 mm TRS mini jack on the source end and two TS jack 6.35 mm mono plugs on the output ends for left and right channels. The PCU201-Z cable — 3.8 mm conductor diameter, 7.6 mm overall diameter, flexible PVC jacket — splits a stereo signal into two independent mono channels. Moulded plastic connector sleeves with colour coding protect the cable-to-plug junction, and 24-carat gold-plated contacts minimise transition losses at every connection.
1 metre — minimal cabling when devices are in close proximity
One metre suits configurations where the mobile device — smartphone, tablet, or laptop — sits directly beside an audio interface with TS 6.35 mm inputs, a mixer with jack line inputs, or an amplifier on the same surface. It eliminates excess cable in close-proximity setups and reduces entanglement with other cables on a densely wired workstation. The TRS-to-TS conversion is correct: the tip of the mini jack (left stereo channel) routes to the tip of the left 6.35 mm jack, and the ring (right channel) routes to the tip of the right jack. Colour-coded 6.35 mm jack plugs allow error-free channel connection even in poor lighting or without checking equipment labelling.
Lightweight PCU201-Z construction — flexibility and minimal socket load
The PCU201-Z cable in PVC jacket retains flexibility through repeated coiling without developing a fixed loop shape — relevant for a short cable that is regularly packed and uncoiled when moving a kit. Moulded plastic sleeves on both plugs prevent mechanical stress concentration when the cable or connector is pulled, extending the service life of the internal solder connections. The very low weight of the AY5 series reduces the mechanical load on the device's mini jack socket in permanent connections without additional cable support — particularly relevant with smartphones whose audio sockets are positioned on the side or bottom of the device.
