Connection Color Coding

RCA audio connections are usually color-coded red and white. Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “L”). Use red plugs to connect right-channel audio inputs and outputs (typi- cally labeled “R”).

Composite video connections are usually color-coded yellow. Use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs.
