The Cable Connector Quiz


Cables, plugs, wires, cords, etc. that connect your TV, audio, computer, iPod to each other and the rest of the world. You use them all the time, but do you know what they're called? I scored 80% with a bit of luck.

For example, what it labels as an "ethernet cables" is more accurately called an RJ45 connector. It is popularly used in ethernet, and most people will ever see it used for ethernet, but that's not it's only role.

Just thought you'd like to know.
