Abstract: A stack able patch cable for splitting an electrical signal is described. The patch cable includes two plug members connected via a cable. Each plug member includes a male end and a female end. The male end has a male signal contact and a male shield contact electrically isolated from the male signal contact. The female end includes a female signal contact and a female shield contact electrically isolated from the female signal contact. Additionally, the female signal contact is electrically connected with the male signal contact and the female shield contact is electrically connected with the male shield contact. Further, the female end is configured to receive a male end of a plug to electrically connect the corresponding contacts. Thus, the plug member is capable of receiving and connecting directly with another plug member to split a signal while maintaining signal quality.
