mini plug audio outputs sorties audio avec mini-jack Explanation: There is a confusion of terminology here between US and UK English, for starters. In the US, a 'jack' refers very often to a female connector or 'socket', whereas in modern UK usage, it ore often refers to the male jack type of plug that goes into it. So in UK EN we could say 'a female jack socket', whereas in the US that would sound tautological. Here, it is clear that they are talking about the unit's having female sockets of the type known as mini-jack — and the latter term is so widely used in FR, it would be somewhat perverse to try and find something less English' to replace it. Here are a few examples of it in use: Bidouilles. Hacking. Expériences. Découvertes.: [Circuit Bending ...
