Audio cable CORDIAL 14826 — 6.35 mm male to 6.35 mm female, 10 m, black

CORDIAL 14826 is a 10 m audio extension cable with a 6.35 mm (1/4") stereo male connector to a 6.35 mm stereo female connector. The cable is finished in black with a PVC outer jacket and is intended to extend or adapt instruments, amplifiers, mixers and studio equipment while keeping a simple analogue signal path for live and studio applications.

Advantages

The cable provides a straightforward way to extend or adapt 6.35 mm stereo connections without active electronics. Its PVC outer jacket offers basic mechanical protection and flexibility, and the 10 m length gives increased reach on stage or in the studio. Connectors on both ends maintain compatibility with standard 6.35 mm (1/4") stereo jacks used on instruments, amplifiers and audio equipment.

Suitable for

• Extending instrument leads (electric guitar, keyboard) to reach amplifiers
• Extending or adapting connections between studio equipment and mixers
• Temporary stage or rehearsal setups where a passive extension is sufficient

When it may not be suitable

This passive extension cable does not provide impedance conversion, signal boosting, or balanced XLR connectivity. For long-distance runs beyond 10 m, or where balanced lines and interference rejection are required, a different cable type or an active DI/booster should be considered.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 m
• Connector A: 6.35 mm (1/4") straight stereo male
• Connector B: 6.35 mm (1/4") straight stereo female
• Colour: Black
• Outer jacket: PVC

How to use

Plug the 6.35 mm stereo male connector into the output of the instrument or audio device and insert the 6.35 mm stereo female connector to accept a male plug from an amplifier, mixer or other equipment. Ensure connectors are fully seated to avoid intermittent contact. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, pinching or sources of electromagnetic interference for the best analogue signal integrity.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify you need a passive 6.35 mm stereo extension rather than a balanced or active solution
• Confirm the 10 m length is appropriate for your stage or studio layout
• Check that both devices accept 6.35 mm stereo connectors (not mono TS or XLR)

Usage recommendations

Use this Cordial 10 m 6.35 mm male-to-female extension for short- to medium-length analogue extensions in non-critical signal chains; avoid routing alongside mains cables to reduce noise and replace the cable if connectors show wear that causes crackling or loss of signal.
