Matrox CAB-HD15-TVF HD15 to TVout cable ROHS content_copy

The Matrox CAB-HD15-TVF is a VGA adapter cable with a length of 0.3 m, specifically designed for connecting Matrox Millennium and Parhelia series graphics cards to televisions or other devices with S-Video and Composite Video inputs. The cable connects a VGA (D-Sub) plug at one end to an S-Video and Composite Video socket connection at the other end, enabling the analog video output from the graphics card to be transmitted to a TV or monitor with corresponding inputs. The cable is black, allowing for discreet integration into existing systems.

Applications
This cable is primarily intended for use with Matrox graphics cards, particularly the models Millennium G450/G550 series, Millennium P650, Millennium P650 PCIe 128, Millennium P650 Low-profile PCI, Millennium P650 LP PCIe 64, Millennium P750, Parhelia 128MB, Parhelia 256MB, Parhelia APVe, Parhelia DL256 PCI, and Parhelia PCI 256MB. These graphics cards support the TV output function, which is activated via the CAB-HD15-TVF. It serves as a TV output adapter cable, enabling screen output to be transmitted to televisions or other analog video receivers, which is particularly useful in older systems or specific applications such as presentations or monitoring systems.

Functions and Features in Detail
The cable features a VGA (D-Sub) plug at one end, which is inserted into the corresponding output on the graphics card. At the other end, two separate sockets are integrated: one for S-Video and one for Composite Video. These two video formats allow connection to various devices, depending on which input is available. The cable length of 0.3 m is suitable for short connections within a computer case or between a device and a television, providing sufficient length for flexible placement without being excessively long. The black color of the cable ensures a discreet appearance.

Technology Explained Simply
The VGA connector (D-Sub) is a standard for analog video signals, commonly used in many older graphics cards and monitors. The use of both outputs allows compatibility with different receiving devices. The cable itself is not an active adapter but a passive signal transmission cable.

Compatibility and Accessories
The cable is exclusively intended for the specified Matrox graphics cards that support TV output functionality. It is not a universal cable but specifically developed for the listed models. Compatibility is limited to the Millennium and Parhelia series, as stated by the manufacturer.

Installation and Mounting
Installation involves simply plugging the VGA plug into the corresponding output on the graphics card and then connecting the S-Video and Composite Video sockets to the inputs on the television or monitor. No additional settings or drivers are required, as the TV output function of the graphics card is activated via the cable. The cable length of 0.3 m requires the devices to be placed close to each other.

Operational Advantages
The cable enables a simple and direct connection between Matrox graphics cards and analog video receivers without requiring additional converters or adapters. The combination of S-Video and Composite Video offers flexibility in selecting the target device. The short cable length ensures neat cabling and minimizes the risk of signal interference. Its use is specifically designed for systems relying on the TV output function of Matrox graphics cards.
