Female SCART to BNC adapter breakout cable plus built in sync separator LM1881 with optional Extron Phoenix audio connector.

To enable the use of RGB games consoles and RGB computers on Sony PVM monitors which have BNC inputs for RGB and Sync (Not compatible with sync on green). Also not compatible with the Sony PVM2030 monitor which use a 25pin d-sub input referred to as the CMPTR connector. For this and other PVM monitors which use the 25pin d-sub input you will need a female SCART to 25 way connector.

This adapter cable converts "sync over composite video" into a composite sync (CSYNC) signal using a built in sync stripper circuit called an LM1881. A composite sync signal eradicates timing problems often experienced with old gaming machines. Please see the SCART cable power requirements below to enable the video sync separator to operate. This cable is also available without the sync stripper here. This cable benefits from being screened to minimise electrical interference and all ground pins are connected inside the SCART to avoid compatibility issues.

This adapter cable is mandatory for Sony monitors PVM 2950G and PVM 2950QM. And also NEC Multisync 4PG & XM29 Plus, however, it will also work on all other Sony PVM monitors which accept separate R-G-B and sync BNC inputs. For all those CSYNC purists out there! Please check out our Professional RGB monitor compatibility list to see some of our customers monitor/games consoles setups.

Power requirements for (CSYNC) video sync separator:

Requires a EuroSCART cable which is wired for either 5 volts or 12 volts on pin number 8 of the SCART plug. This is needed to power up the LM1881 video sync separator circuit and without this required voltage you will not get a stable picture on your monitor. Please see diagram below which shows the location of pin 8 . If there is a wire attached to this pin then you should be good to go. If you are unsure whether your cable is wired correctly please contact us for assistance. All video game console RGB SCART cables from Retro Gaming Cables are compatible with the video sync separator version except the Nintendo GameCube.

If your monitor has a mono sound input only you will need a stereo to mono adapter. PVM models which require this adapter include the PVM20M2MDE & PVM14M2MDE.

All cables are tested before dispatch. Made in Great Britain. This is not an official Sony Product.
