An apparatus for conveying audio signals from an input locus to an output locus remote from the input locus includes: (a) a multi-pin unit configured for receiving at least three signal paths at the input locus, including at least two audio signal paths for conveying the audio signals and at least one ground path; (b) at least one cable unit coupled with the multi-pin unit, substantially spanning an interval between the multi-pin unit and the output locus, and presenting the at least three signal paths at the output locus; (c) a connector pin unit coupled with the at least one cable unit at the output locus, and presenting the at least three signal paths in a single-pin configuration; and (d) a filter unit coupled with the at least one cable unit for filtering at least one predetermined signal component from the at least two audio signal paths.

Apparatus and method for conveying audio signals from an input locus to an output locus

An apparatus for selectively coupling electrical connectors. The apparatus includes a common connector electrically coupled to a secondary connector and a primary connector electrically coupled to the common connector through an isolation means. The isolation means operates to electrically isolate the primary connector upon detection of an external connection to the secondary connector.
