A VGA (Video Graphics Array) cable is a type of connector primarily used to transmit video signals from a computer or other compatible device to a display, such as a monitor or projector. It typically consists of a cable with a 15-pin connector on each end, though there are variations depending on the specific device and its ports. VGA cables are commonly used for connecting desktop computers, laptops, and other devices to monitors, especially older models that may not have newer connection types like HDMI or DisplayPort. However, VGA is becoming less common as newer digital connection standards offer better quality and performance.
