Innovation is life
Also known as Peritel, this standard provides a cheap multi-signal connector
to domestic TVs and other video equipment.
Arrangement 1 is the original and allows for composite video input/output,
S-Video inputs, RGB inputs and audio input/output.
Arrangement 2 allows for composite video input/output and audio
input/output.
