Wide selection of lengths, high-capacity VGA
connector and your choice of RCA or BNC connectors.
Male or female genders may be selected for
each connector.
Description
The VGA-style connector is also known as HD15, HD-15, DB15, DB-15, RGBHV, R/G/B/H/V,
RGB/HV, RGB (HV) RGB, and any number of other variations. For the sake of
simplicity, we will refer to them here simply as "VGA connectors".
This is a high-performance breakout cable, used to connect equipment
with VGA-style
connectors to standard component video equipment or cables. For example,
one might use a short VGA-male/RCA-female
break-out cable (like the one pictured at
the right) to connect a piece of
equipment with a VGA connector to a standard
component video cable.
Longer cables can be used as a complete
end to end solution. For example, a
VGA-male/RCA-male cable would be ideal for
connecting a DVD player with component video
outputs to a projector that can
accept component video via a VGA connector.
Of course, this cable will not convert signal format or colorspace.
Your display device must be able to accommodate the signal from your source
equipment. We have active converters if you need them.
VGA Connectors
Our VGA connectors have gold-plated pins and a special oversized shielded
metal hood. These connectors are available in both male and female pin
genders - choose at the lower right. These
high-capacity connectors are large enough to accommodate full-sized
Canare V3-3C component video cable. This larger cable is a perfect match
for Canare's excellent impedance-matched connector system.
RCA Connectors
Impedance matched RCA connectors are very rare. Impedance-matched inline
RCA-female connectors are so rare that that you probably won't find a
VGA-to-RCA-female breakout cable assembly design that uses impedance-matched RCA
connectors anywhere else. By maintaining a constant 75 Ohm impedance,
ghosting, ringing, signal loss, and other artifacts associated with impedance
mismatch are prevented.
BNC Connectors
Impedance-matched BNC connectors are somewhat less rare than their RCA
counterparts, but Canare's BNC connectors are certainly among the finest.
They have heavy nickel-plated bodies, beryllium copper contact fingers, and
gold-plated pins. These are impedance-matched 75 Ohm connectors, and
cannot be compared to low-cost data-grade 50 Ohm connectors that are found on
many inexpensive cables.
High-performance Breakout Setup
As mentioned above, an excellent
application for this type of cable would be
a short VGA-male/RCA-female break-out cable
(like the one pictured at the right) to connect a piece of
equipment with a VGA connector to a standard
component video cable.
Since BNC connectors are both
electrically and mechanically superior to
RCA connectors (particularly non-Canare RCA
connectors), if you do not already have component video cables to complete your breakout
setup, you may want to consider a breakout cable setup with BNC connectors.
Either way, RCA or BNC, if you need cables to complete your break-out setup, please check our
cables page. We offer color-coded cables separately, in any combination of
BNC, RCA, or "F" type connectors, so you can have an elegant, adaptorless
hook-up between just about any two pieces of equipment. If you don't find
what you need, or if you need some help, please feel free to contact us.
Why Cable Solutions?
Customer service is our first priority. We do our best to help you find the
best solutions for your particular application. We're enthusiasts too, so
we know what it's like to wait for cables to hook up new gear. We stock
all of the components needed to build all of the items listed on
our site, so we are
able to do something that most cable shops do not - we build and ship most
orders within one business day. We also know how important it is to be able to
get a response when you need help, so you'll often find us working
long hours in an effort to get you the answers that you need. It takes
good people to do outstanding work...the kind of workmanship you want for your
custom cables. It usually costs more to keep good people, but the
importance of high-quality workmanship is second only to the importance of
superior service. I'll let you figure out for yourself why paying too
little for a cable can turn out to be just as bad as paying too much. Our
pricing is based upon the actual cost of building the cables.
Canare cable, Canare connectors, and Canare tools - an all Canare
system. When you take a system this good and put it in the hands of
technicians as good as ours, it becomes an awesome system! Design excellence,
high quality materials, meticulous workmanship, and superior service...put it all
together and you get a superior product. Don't get stuck with bad advice, poor
service, slow shipment or an inferior product. If you want the best, here it is.

Shown here is a packaged half-meter
cable with VGA-male / RCA-female terminations. Please choose the length and
configuration that you need below.
Here is our high-capacity VGA-male connector. All contact points are gold plated for
long, reliable performance. You may also select VGA-female.
This picture gives you a close look at the RCA-female termination option. Notice that
here again, all contact points are gold-plated.
Here is the RCA-male connector option.
In this photo, you can see the BNC-male termination option
in great detail.
