Chapter 1: What is a VGA Cable?

VGA stands for Video Graphic Array, and there are many ways to connect the video sources to monitor and display devices like LCD.

You might have seen a blue-colored cable that connects the CPU to the LED. This cable is the VGA connector that has three rows of 15 pins. Although the style and numbers of the pins have changed, the main working and model of VGA cables are still the same.

History of VGA Cables

VGA cables are not always the same in terms of size. The traditional 15-pin VGA cables are used for general desktop computers, which is inappropriate for laptops and other mini devices. Mini-VGA cables are used for small devices like the latest desktop PCs and laptops.

Still, in 2019, you cannot deny the importance of VGA cables in electronics. The latest technologies and cables like HDMI and DVI replace traditional VGA cables. Most of devices have replaced these traditional VGA cables. But you will need these cables if your system has some display devices as components.

Chapter 2: How to Choose the Suitable VGA Cable?

The choice of VGA cable depends upon your requirements and the design of your device. You need a different kind of VGA cable if you have a normal-sized computer. And if you are into laptop manufacturing, you will need a mini VGA cable. If you are developing a unique device that will use display devices, you need to choose the custom VGA cables.

If you are making the first purchase of VGA cables for your electronics, you must have a checklist to check before making the payment.

Quality of the VGA Cable

The quality and material used in manufacturing the VGA cables are paramount. The quality of the connectors and the VGA cables are also essential for the device’s safety. You should never compromise on the quality of the cables, as if something goes wrong with the VGA cables, the whole device and the system can face failure.

There are no universal or international standards to define the exact quality of the VGA cables.

But in general, high-quality VGA cables use coaxial cables of high material, and the external coating is there for extra protection. The protective coating of inexpensive cables makes the cables thicker and protects the wires from damage and cuts.

Design of the VGA Cable

If you are looking for traditional VGA cables for your electronics, you can quickly get the cables from any quality manufacturer. But if you are looking for unique wires with exceptional pins, consult your design with the experts. So they can design custom VGA cables for your electronics.

While buying VGA connectors, you must see that the design follows the safety standards and that the wires fulfill the quality standards. In addition, the internal design of VGA cables can vary depending on the size. The quality cables are generally thicker in size due to the protective layer of insulation.

Price of average VGA Cable

VGA cables’ cost depends upon the cord’s length and quality. Looking for top VGA cables on Amazon, you will see that regular VGA cables range from $7 to $15. The price can vary if you want to buy lengthy wire for a specific purpose.
