The Video Graphics Array (VGA) connector is a standard connector used for computer video output. Originating with the 1987 IBM PS/2 and its VGA graphics system, the 15-pin connector went on to become ubiquitous on PCs, [1] as well as many monitors, projectors and HD television sets.
Female (left) and male (right) twin BNC connectors. Twin BNC (also known as twinax) connectors use the same bayonet latching shell as an ordinary BNC connector but contain two independent contact points (one male and one female), allowing the connection of a 78 ohm or 95 ohm shielded differential pair such as RG-108A.

The historical connector used by MDA, EGA and CGA graphic cards is a female nine-pin D-subminiature . The signal standard and pinout are backward-compatible with CGA, allowing EGA monitors to be used on CGA cards and vice versa. Early VGA cards also used this connector. VGA connector (DE-15)
Schematic symbols for male and female connector pins. In electrical and mechanical trades and manufacturing, each half of a pair of mating connectors or fasteners is conventionally designated as male or female, [1] a distinction referred to as its gender. [2] The female connector is generally a receptacle that receives and holds the male connector.
XLR3 cable connectors, female on left and male on right. XLR connector plugs and sockets are used mostly in professional audio and video electronics cabling applications. XLR connector are also known as Cannon plugs after their original manufacturer. They are used for analog or digital balanced audio with a balanced line
A gender changer is a hardware device placed between two cable connectors of the same type and gender. An example is a cable connector shell with either two female or two male connectors on it (male-to-male or female-to-female), used to correct the mismatches that result when interconnecting two devices or cables with the same gender of connector.
A Y-style breakout cable is needed for the transition from the DMS-59 output (digital + analogue) to DVI (digital) or VGA (analogue), and different types of adapter cables exist. The connector is four pins high and 15 pins wide, with a single pin missing from the bottom row, in a D-shaped shell, with thumbscrews.
Color-coded PS/2 connection ports (purple for keyboards and green for mice) on the rear of a personal computer An S-video connector: because this is a female connector, Pin 1 is at lower right. Mini-DIN connectors are 9.5 millimetres (3 ⁄ 8 in) in diameter and come in seven patterns, with the number of pins from three to nine. Each pattern is ...
