==Overview==
The term "<nowiki>T.S.</nowiki>" is used to describe a two-conductor 1/4" "phone" plug similar to a guitar cable plug.
==History==
The <nowiki>T.S.</nowiki> connector is similar to the T.R.S. connector originally developed for use in telephone switchboards except that it has only two conductors. It is widely used in audio applications for making [[unbalanced]] audio connections.
==Basics==
The <nowiki>T.R.S.</nowiki> connector is a 1/4" diameter "phone" plug that has two conductors:
#The "tip" which is the conductor at the tip of the plug
#The "sleeve" which is the longest conductor furthest from the tip.

-This type of connector is typically wired as follows:
+===Typical Wiring Connections===
 *The tip is connected to the signal conductor.
 *The sleeve is connected to the Shield/signal return.

 In cases where hum or noise pick-up is a problem; it is also possible to use a T.S. connector with [[shielded twisted-pair]] cable typically used for balanced connections with a "[[quasi-balanced]]" connection scheme.

-In the vast majority of cases, a [[coaxial]] cable is used for cables with T.S. connectors on one or both ends. This means the the [[shield]] acts as ''both'' the shield conductor and the signal return conductor.
