Component video terminals
The component video terminals (color-difference video terminals) output red (P
R
), blue (P
B
), and luminance (Y) signals
separately. The terminals reproduce colors with greater accuracy for this reason.
Insert the cable after
making sure shapes
match.
How to connect the optical
fiber cable
