Best Answer

In electronics, the patch cord connects one stand alone piece of equipment to another. For instance, your printer has a patch cord to connect to your computer. Since the type of connection is generic, many electronic instruments do not have a special cord but a general one which may be purchased anywhere.

Just like an extension cord, the patch cord is not specific to any one instrument.
