Why Do I Need a Component Cable?

Matrix camcorder can perceive three primary colors: blue, green and red. Other colors of the spectrum are obtained by mixing the three basic. This principle is called RGB. Video cameras generate an image in this format, and then the signal is reproduced TV or computer monitor. By varying intensity of the three primary colors, it is possible to create any hue range, resulting in natural image appears on the screen.

This encoding is used when transferring image, known as the DVD-standard. Almost all DVD-players have video output that connects to the three-wire component cable that provides a clean and rich colors as well as clear images. Most of these players have several different video output type. However, the use of such interfaces will cause that a high quality component video will be compressed and transmitted in the worst standard (for example, in the composite) to your monitor. Therefore, if your player and a TV can operate in the component video mode, it is best to use this standard. Typically, such a cord is composed of three types of connectors RCA, which are indicated in red, green and blue colors (Y, BY, RY). If the TV and the monitor have the same type of connectors, then it is important to observe the color coding. Most often on the receiving apparatus receives a component signal through the VGA port. This interface is equipped with a 15-pin D-sub-connector.

BTW, you can buy the component cables and computer accessories (e.g. the 25 pin printer port, 363 ink cartridges) at Banggood for high quality and reasonable prices.
