R.L. Drake AC-3 / AC-4 Power Supply Output Cable with 12 pin female Cinch Jones connector

R.L. Drake AC-3 / AC-4 Power Supply Output Cable (12-pin female Cinch Jones connector).This is the original interconnect/power cable that runs from the Drake AC-3 or AC-4 power supply to the transceiver (TR-3, TR-4, TR-4C, T-4X series, etc.). It carries all the high-voltage DC lines (650V, 250V, bias, filaments, etc.) plus the speaker connection pigtail.

Key Details
  • Connector: 12-pin female Cinch Jones (S-312-CCT or equivalent Molex/Cinch part). The keyed layout (some blades vertical, some horizontal) prevents incorrect insertion.
  • Cable: Multi-conductor gray cable, typically 4–6+ feet long, with individual wires for each voltage.
  • Other end: Usually hard-wired into the AC-4 supply or terminated to match the supply’s output. Your photo shows the characteristic 12-pin female plug, cable bundle, and likely the speaker RCA pigtail or supply-side termination.
  • Compatibility: Standard for the famous Drake “4-Line” and “C-Line” equipment from the 1960s–1970s. Highly sought by owners restoring or maintaining these classic rigs.
