Premium PlayStation 1, 2 & 3 RGB SCART Cable – Fully Shielded CVBS Sync

This PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2 & PlayStation 3 RGB SCART cable is designed for compatible Sony consoles using the 12-pin AV Multi Out connection, providing clean analogue RGBS video through a fully shielded EuroSCART connection with CVBS Sync.

The original PlayStation, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 can provide analogue RGB through the Sony AV Multi Out connection. When configured for compatible RGB output, the cable carries the red, green and blue picture channels separately rather than combining the entire image into a composite-video signal. This provides sharper edges, cleaner colour separation and reduced colour interference compared with standard composite video.

The cable uses CVBS Sync, also known as Sync-On-Composite, where composite video carries the synchronisation information required by the RGB signal. This provides a standard 15kHz RGBS connection suitable for compatible EuroSCART televisions, CRT displays and retro gaming video processors.

Fully shielded construction helps protect the RGB, sync and stereo-audio signals from electrical interference and crosstalk. The cable uses 24 AWG stranded-copper conductors, aluminium foil shielding and tin-plated copper-mesh shielding, together with an integrated ferrite core to help suppress high-frequency interference.

An internal PCB within the SCART connector houses the required video components and provides a secure connection between the Sony AV Multi Out connector and the 21-pin EuroSCART plug. Left and right analogue audio are carried alongside the RGB video through the same cable.

On PlayStation 1 and PS one consoles, the cable carries the console's native standard-definition RGB output, including software and region-dependent 240p, 288p, 480i and 576i video modes.

On PlayStation 2 consoles, standard-definition RGB video is supported when the console's Component Video Out setting is configured for RGB. Progressive-scan RGB modes such as 480p use Sync-On-Green rather than CVBS Sync and therefore require compatible video equipment and a different signal configuration.

On PlayStation 3 consoles, the AV Multi Out connection can be configured for compatible analogue output through the console's Video Output Settings. This cable is intended for standard-definition RGBS operation rather than the console's HDMI, component or high-definition video modes.

The cable can be connected directly to a compatible RGB SCART television or CRT. For modern displays it can also be paired with the OSSC or GBSC Pro to convert compatible analogue RGB signals for HDMI output.

At approximately 1.3 metres long, the cable provides practical positioning between the PlayStation console and connected television, CRT or video processor without excessive cable length.
