The Video Graphics Array (VGA) is a popular interface for connecting monitors to computers or video game consoles. A component cable splits the video signal over three components (green, red and blue) in order to enhance video quality. Many TVs have a component video input, but not a VGA one. If you need to connect you computer to such a TV, use a special cable to convert the two types of the video signal. Locate the VGA video output on the back panel of your computer. Plug the VGA connector of the cable into the VGA video port of your computer. Insert the component connector (three cables color-coded as green-blue-red) into the component video input of an electronic device, typically a TV. The input component port has three jacks (sockets) that are also color-coded as green-blue-red; match the cable color with the jack color.
