| What is VGA / SVGA?
VGA (Video Graphics Array) and SVGA (Super VGA) are the video graphics standards long used for computer video outputs. Typically a VGA / SVGA cable has 15-pins and is used to connect a standard computer video card to a standard CRT monitor. Some LCD monitors also support the 15-pin VGA / SVGA standard. What is a Male-to-Male Cable? What is a Male-to-Female Cable? Male and Female declarations define what the pin orientation is on one side of the connector. A male pin is one that physically sticks out of the socket. A female pin is a hole that houses a male pin. For example, a male-to-male cable has male connectors (pins sticking out) on both sides of it. Typically a male-to-male monitor cable would be used to connect a video card to a monitor. A male-to-female cable will have one male side and one female side. Typically a male-to-female monitor cable would be used as an extension cable. Male-to-Male can also be referred to as M-to-M and Male-to-Female as M-to-F, etc. | ||||||||||
