AES-14id-2010 (s2017): AES information document for interconnections - Universal jack for IEC 60603-11 and B gauge 6,35 mm plugs

Pub. 2010, Reaffirmed 2015, Stabilized 2017
Abstract:
Users of test equipment and portable audio equipment such as mixers and direct-injection (DI) boxes, may have to handle 'consumer' type equipment that uses the IEC 60603-11 3 contact (tip-ring-sleeve, or TRS) 6,3 mm plug connector and also professional equipment that uses the B-gauge connector. Traditionally, this has required the use of numerous ad-hoc adapters and connecting leads with different plugs at each end. Neither solution is very convenient and may be unreliable.
