Configuring The Video Display - Intergraph Intense3D Wildcat 3510 Hardware User's Manual

NOTE If a workstation monitor has no built-in video cable, use a shielded video cable with a
15-pin (D-sub) video connector at one end for the video output port on the card, and
the appropriate connectors at the other end for the video input port on the
workstation monitor.
Monitor input ports are usually D-sub or Bayonet Nut Connect (BNC) connectors.
Shielded cables usually have a ferrite core (a box- or cylinder-shaped attachment)
near each end to reduce interference with radio frequencies.
