Display Connector Types

= compatible with SideCar MMS series

= highest-quality connection

Analog VGA – all computer displays

The standard computer analog display connector, introduced in 1987. More precisely described as an HD15 or mini D-sub15-pinconnector; D-sub 15 or D-subfor short. Male on left, female on right. Supported computer displays include CRTs, LCD flat panels, data projectors, and large plasma displays.

(Using a different signal standard – YPrPb component video – the connector is also used for some dual-use projectors and plasma displays, which support computer input and component video input with the same connector and switchable signaling.)

The SideCar MMS series includes analog VGA adapters with HD15 female connectors, for standard computer VGA-type (RGB) signaling.

Digital DVI – flat panels / projectors

Abbreviated DVI-D, introduced in 1999. Superior digital connection for high-qualityflat-panel displays and data projectors. A related connector is the DVI-Iconnector (below), which can carry either digital or analog signals as needed. A DVI-I female connector is plug- compatible with DVI-D male connectors used by better flat-panel displays and data projectors. DVI-I also supports VGA monitors with an HD15 adapter (supplied).

DVI-I connector

The SideCar includes one or two dual-monitorY-cables(shown at left) with two DVI-I female connectors. You may use these Y-cables alone for DVI connections or add HD15 adapters (supplied) to support

Dual-monitor DVI Y-cableanalog VGA-style displays. If your displays can accept either DVI

(supplied with the SideCar) or VGA inputs, use a DVI connection. (Unless you need resolution higher than 1280 by 1024, which requires the analog VGA adapters described in VGA section.)

Analog BNC-5– best analog connection

Used by higher-quality analog CRT monitors and plasma displays; supports higher resolutions and cable lengths than standard HD15 cables, due to signals being carried on five coaxial sub-cables. With an HD15 (VGA) adapter supplied with most BNC-5 displays, BNC-5 is supported by the SideCar MMS using its Y-cables and VGA adapters.

RCA – TV / video monitors

Standard RCA composite video connector for consumer TVs and flat-panel monitors supporting TV input. RCA composite video is supported by the SideCar MMS series only when the SideCar is attached via a PCI interface to desktop PCs and docking stations.

S-video– TV / video monitors

Higher quality than RCA composite video. Used by consumer TVs,

NTSC monitors, and flat panels with TV input. Also known as Y/C.

S-video is supported by the SideCar MMS series only when the

SideCar is attached via a PCI interface (not PCMCIA/CardBus) .
