The Kramer VGA to 3 RCA phono breakout cables are used when a source or display can be
configured to send or receive either VGA or
Component video signals.
For example Panasonic 11 series eg TH-42PH11BK, TH-50PF11BK
or TH-65PF11BK have VGA inputs as standard
that can also accept component video on the same connector. Using this adaptor cable allows you to input component video without the need to purchase
a component video terminal board, or to have two sources of component video into the one screen if you do have the terminal board.
This connector has male VGA and female RCA phono sockets to allow you to use a standard component video cable for longer cable runs.
For very short runs consider the versions with male plugs at both ends. See
here
These adaptor cables do NOT carry audio signals
This cable is NOT a converter. If you have a laptop computer that you want to display on a TV that has component
video input connections this cable will NOT be suitable. You will need to convert the signal from your laptop VGA output into a component
video signal. To do this you will need a VGA to component video converter.
As an alternative to this converter, especially if you want to connect your PC to a conventional CRT TV, you can down convert the signal
from your laptop VGA output into a composite video or S-video signal using the
AV Toolbox AVT3155 VGA to composite/S-video converter.
