I maintain that "RCA jacks and plugs" have been the usual nomenclature for what, in the vinyl era of hi-fi, began as the "RCA phono jack", by far the most common audio-video connector in domestic (not pro) hi-fi and video for decades until the advent of DVI and HDMI connectors.

"Canare", apart from the brand name, has never been part of common usage. Even with RF 75-ohm connectors, "F-connector" or "BNC" connector is the common term for an RF connector, which is used by virtually all cable-TV company installers.
