It prevent corosion and rust if you do.
Cables with gold connectors are considered to increase conductivity, which usually increases speeds.
The connectors aren't gold - they're gold plated, and microscopically so. If you could melt all the gold off of the connectors in a standard set of Monster Cables, by weight, it would be worth about a buck - buck and a half. If that. When I say the amount of gold is microscopic, I mean it's microscopic.
Compoent video cables themselves aren't made of gold, but they can be gold plated. Gold plated connectors allow for better conductivity. The cables are typically made of oxygen free copper.
Some electronics have gold plated connectors, made of "real gold" to increase conduction and reduce corrosion. However, the plating is very thin.
Copper cables are the best and the standard just make sure it is sheilded cable.
Both connectors are gold plated
The bronze and gold of Monster Premium Cable connections improve conductivity and the video quality.
u can find gold in alot of thing such as hdmi cables, computer parts, cell phones, high quility connections, watches, pretty much anything that has a smart connection in it has 24k gold....
Gold metal core typically refers to a solid core made of gold that is used as an electrical conductor in various applications like cables, connectors, and circuit boards. Gold's high conductivity and resistance to corrosion make it an ideal choice for applications where reliability and performance are critical.
Gold is used in electronics for connectors. The only gold in a cable will be the thin plating on the connecting pins of the connector itself. It is used because gold does not corrode and therefore does not suffer from poor connections due to oxidization of the connector surface. The total amount of gold will be measured in milligrams.
RCA connectors for automobiles... Advantages Cheap cables and connectors Reliable if not connected/disconnected a lot Vibration resistant Commonly available Small and discreet Disadvantages Not designed for many connect/disconnect cycles Unbalanced signal isn't as noise-canceling as balanced wiring Fragile connectors, especially disconnected male plugs Not the easiest connectors to attach to cables (not the most difficult either) Not safe for hot disconnect (the ground may detach before the hot lead). Even gold-plated RCA connectors aren't as cool (or as expensive) as pro audio or mil-spec connectors for show cars in automotive use, they aren't connected or disconnected often, or when operational, they aren't exposed, cables aren't usually made or repaired by hand, so most of the disadvantages are irrelevant.
Cable is 100% copper, and connectors are Gold Plated. No one uses silver or gold for the cable part.
