I have five satellite receivers in a rack and need to feed each analog audio output to two devices. This can be done with Y cables and the like, but I'd like something neater. A panel with RCA jacks on it comes to mind.

Each channel would need a jack to connect to the satellite receiver and a jack to connect to each of the other two devices... so I'd need a panel of some sort with, say, ten rows of three RCAs, which I could wire together appropriately. I'd expect that somewhere there are surplus or used panels of, say, eight or ten sets of three or four RCAs. I could use that for four of the receivers, anyway!

Does anyone know of an already-made panel with a bunch of RCA jacks on it?

Would you consider a standard keystone patch panel with RCA keystones?

Or, perhaps here's a lead:

The cost of any multiple keystone assembly would put it out of reach.
The vadcon thing points out to me that I'm looking for them to take up less room, so I want the jacks closer together.

Thanks for teasing out a couple more details of what I'm looking for (and not).

Look around for this old Radio Shack model, always worked great:

It has built-in learning, so any remote can be taught to trip it.

How about this sort of 'Y': [Link: ebay.com]

A similar looking model that's for component cables would work too, rca is rca?

WRT "... connect to each of the other two devices... ", what are these devices? Receivers, integrated amplifiers...?

In either case, if they're both in the same cabinet/rack/area, why not connect the feed to one 'device' and use the REC OUT to feed the next one?

Wouldn't the record out only allow the source receiver chosen on the first device, to be fed through to the second device? Vs choosing any of the 5 to be played on either device?

Craig

His description didn't seem to need choosing any of the five by any of the second 'devices', but that would need more of a matrix, not a Y cord (which would work, according to his first post). He wrote "... need to feed each analog audio output to two devices".

How is it possible that no one asked what sat boxes he has and what 2 devices hes connecting to?

Does it NEED to be analog?

Most satellite boxes have multiple audio outputs....

Some devices have loop through....

buzz's third one is the most appropriate for the need:

Yes, I'm the guy who always wants all brands and model numbers, but this time I didn't give that out.

As was noted, I said that I had five sources that each need to be split to two devices. That means I have fifteen devices that always need to be interconnected. Thus the old Radio Shack switch is out.

I did not intend for this to be mysterious, so, sorry if it was.

For those who answer with a switch after I say I need a panel with multiple jacks: I have nine satellite receivers in a rack. The analog audio from five of them goes to five 900 MHz FM transmitters; matching receivers are mounted to and wired into cardio machines in this gym. We also have an eight-channel WiFi transmitter that clients can connect their phones to. The audio from the first five satellite receivers also goes to this device.

The Y cable idea was also spot on. It's the first thing we did, and it worked just fine. It looked like hell and the cables were all too long. So I was thinking, if I just knew where to get a panel with a bunch of jacks on it................

Use the Y's and hide the "hell" in this http://neatpatch.com/

I used this to split off signals and worked great. Rack mount and everything. They have a component video version also .

Take the back panel of an obsolete 10 year old AVR and repurpose it. Cut it to size, paint it, wire it the way you want it.

How about this:
