(white) and right (red) channel audio signals
to an audio receiver.
S-Video cable. Use this cable to connect a
video component, such as a DVD player or
VCR, to the projector.
The video signal is split into two signals,
black-and-white and color. This type of cable
produces a better picture than the
single-connector from the composite video
cable.
This cable provides no audio output.
