- Maybe it's a FAQ ... I apologize. But I don't subscribe
- to this newsgroup regularly, so I don't know.
-
- I urgently need some pointers (or even better
- information) about port layout on graphic cards of
- workstations and X-terminals. The aim is to issue a
- technical market view of such stuff. Some manufacturers
- have answered my questions freely, such as Sun, IBM,
- Tektronix and others. HP, DEC and SGI did not, and I
- would rather avoid printing an article without their
- data (which I would have to do blaming those who didn't
- answer).
-
- Following data is required:
-
- - type of connector and pin layout at the graphic card
- side of the cable
- - wave impedance of cabling and signal sources (mostly
- 75 Ohms).
- - peak signal voltage
- - polarity of sync pulses horizontally and vertically
- - available resolutions and picture refresh rates
-
- I'd well appreciate every piece of the mosaic since I
- have really gotten hot at the moment some of the
- manufacturers haven't answered :-)
-
- Please mail directly. Thanks.
