Abstract
A signal transfer apparatus includes a plurality of input connectors to which a plurality of signals are input from a first electronic device; and a single output connector which is connected to the plurality of input connectors and transfers the plurality of signals to a second electronic device. The length of a plurality of cables connecting the single output connector and the plurality of input connectors differs from each other so that the plurality of input connectors do not overlap each other.
Claims19
A signal transfer apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of input connectors to which a plurality of signals are input;
- and
- a single output connector which is connected to and receives the plurality of signals from the plurality of input connectors, and outputs the plurality of signals,
- wherein the plurality of signals comprise a luminance signal, a first color difference signal, and a second color difference signal, and the plurality of input connectors comprise:
