Prior to the merger, EIAJ created a number of electronics industry standards that have had some use outside Japan, including:
- The EIAJ connectors used for DC power (EIAJ RC-5320A, EIAJ RC-5321, and EIAJ RC-5322
- The D-Terminal connector (RC-5237), used instead of three RCA plugs for component video connections.
- The TOSLINK (EIAJ Optical, RC-5720C) optical S/PDIF audio connector.
- The EIAJ-1 videotape format, the first standardized format for industrial/non-broadcast video tape recording, released in 1969.
Another standard is the multi-channel TV sound system used with the NTSC-J analog TV system. It is often referred to simply as EIAJ, or sometimes as FM-FM audio.
