Hebrew translation:כבל קומפוזיט (קומפוסיט) או כבל RCA
Explanation:
These are the common name. If the text intended to the general public, this might be the best term to use as it is widely referred to.

In Israel it is also mistakenly called sometimes כבל בננות, which I strongly advise against using in an official document (or at all for that matter).

כבל cable
composite כבל


Explanation:
I translated a user's manual for one of my regular clients recently, and at their request (and glossary), the term composite was kept in English.
So:
composite כבל

Also if you google this term you'll see that in many places it is kept in English.

כבל שונה גידים


Explanation:
מקור: המילון הטכני של חיים גפני בהוצ' כתר משנת 1978 על סמך החלטת האקדמיה ללשון עברית במונחון מושגי אלקטרוניקה משנת 1970

אם הביטוי נראה קצת ארוך או מסובך אפשר לנסות להשתמש ב"כבל מרוכב", שזה קרוב מאד גם מבחינת המשמעות וגם מבחינת תרגום המילה האנגלית לעברית, וחוץ מזה משתמשים בצירוף הזה "כבל מרוכב" בפועל
