Does anyone have them handy?

To fit into the connector, it take its an electrolytic. Thats why (by some standard) one line is longer than the other - the negative pole, going to ground. Its voltage can be as low as 6,3V, but higher is ok, just makes the part bigger. There are also Tantal caps of this size. I dont use them because I made the experience that they die sooner, but I may be wrong, its an interesting option since you may not use that cable more than 5 years :-). The diode is a standard like 1N4148 and on one side of its glass housing there is a line which corresponds to the negative side, the line in its symbol, on the left in the drawing.
