FAQ

What is the difference between male and female VGA connectors?
Male connectors have protruding pins; female connectors have recessed sockets. The P158-000 connects two male cables by providing an adapter between them.

Will this degrade video signal quality?
Gold-plated connectors provide low-resistance pathways, minimizing signal loss. For properly shielded cables and short runs, signal degradation is negligible.
