Abstract

A cable having a first input connector, a second input connector, a third input connector, and a single output connector is provided. The single output connector includes a single pin-shaped output terminal comprising a base and a tip which is disposed opposite to the base and is insertable into a terminal of a television apparatus. A luminance signal is received via the first input connector of the cable; a first color difference signal is received via the second input connector of the cable; and a second color difference signal is received via the third input connector of the cable. The luminance signal is output via a first region of the pin-shaped output terminal; the first color difference signal is output via a second region of the pin-shaped output terminal; and the second color difference signal is output via a third region of the pin-shaped output terminal.

Dependent claims

A method comprising:

providing a cable having a first input connector, a second input connector and a third input connector and a single output connector, the single output connector including a single pin-shaped output terminal comprising a base and a tip which is disposed opposite to the base and is insertable into a terminal of a television apparatus;
receiving a luminance signal via the first input connector of the cable;
receiving a first color difference signal via the second input connector of the cable;
receiving a second color difference signal via the third input connector of the cable;
outputting the luminance signal via a first region of the pin-shaped output terminal;
outputting the first color difference signal via a second region of the pin-shaped output terminal;
and
outputting the second color difference signal via a third region of the pin-shaped output terminal,
wherein the first region, the second region, and the third region are sequentially formed lengthwise, in this order, from the tip to the base along the single pin-shaped output terminal.
