Component Cable for Nintendo Wii TM
The cable that came with your Wii may have one yellow video connector.
That type of cable connects the video using composite video.
Your new cable has three video connectors (red, green, and blue).
This type cable connects the video using component video.
Component video provides better video quality than composite video.

The three video connectors

(red, blue, and green) are bundled together
with a band labeled Video and plug into the
component video jacks on the TV.
The above TV jack panel also has two sets of component video jacks, but the bottom set of jacks
(labeled 1) has a video jack that is both green and yellow.
This jack can be used as the green component video jack or yellow composite video jack. You can
still use these jacks to connect your cable.
The two audio connectors (red and white)

TIP
The above TV jack panel has two sets of component video jacks, and each set has its own audio jacks.
Make sure that you plug the cable connectors into the matching set of audio and video jacks. If you
plug the video connectors into one set of jacks (in this example, 1) and the audio connectors into
the other set of jacks (in this example, 2), you may not hear audio.
