RCA
RCA is a type of connector (phono) used in many systems to connect the machine to the power supply via a cord. The connector is the same as in other uses, but internal wiring and polarity can vary between manufacturers.
Why it matters: In product sheets it indicates how the machine connects. It is important to check compatibility with power supply and cord: other connectors also exist.
