Phone Jack Port
Another useful camera connector is the "Camera Phone Jack Port". This is a "4 position - 4 conductor" phone style jack used in phone head sets. This connector has the following camera control functions: Camera Shutter, Camera Refresh (auto focus), Camera Power On/Off, and Ground/Common. This is a great connector for the RSS, RSP, RSP3i and RSP4i camera wiring methods.
