Pictured above is the XtremeHD Component Video Cable from XtremeMAC.

A Component Video Connection is a video connection in which the separate color and B/W elements of the signal are transfered via separate cables from a source, such as a DVD player, to a video display device, such as a Television or Video Projector. This connection is represented by three RCA cables that have Red, Blue, and Green connection tips.

There are two types of component video connections in use on components, such as DVD players and Televisions: Y,Pb,Pr - Progressive Scan component video input/output connection, and Y,Cb,Cr - Interlaced scan only component video input/output connection. The same component connection cables are used for both the Y,Pb,Pr or Y, Cb, Cr connection options.
