LCD Panel Cabling Tips

This article describes the proper cable to use when connecting an LCD based display to a Macintosh.
All Macintosh computers with built-in video (except for the Macintosh IIci and IIsi) automatically sense what kind of monitor is attached, and adjust the video signal accordingly.

Although most LCD panels can adapt to both RGB and VGA video signals, the different signals require different cables to instruct the Macintosh what signal to send to the display. Check with the LCD panel vendor for the proper cabling for your particular Macintosh.
