"A/V cables" (or any variation thereon) means audio/video cables. These cables carry sound and picture within the home for almost all home-entertainment equipment, such as televisions, VCRs, and DVD players. They are even used directly or with a plug adapter by other devices such as video cameras or game machines.
Until recently, the nomenclature referred only to the set of three A/V cables with one for picture (video), and two for stereo sound (audio). These cables are of the shielded type, terminated with a male connector, called a phono plug or RCA plug, on each end. The carried signals are all analog; the video signal carried is called composite video. Cable manufacturers color-code the cables or the connectors as follows: yellow for video, red for right-channel sound, and black for left-channel sound. But with the arrival of newer means of and standards for carrying sound and picture over wires, "A/V cables" can refer to any combination of wire types carrying sound and picture. Some other standards and technologies are S-video, component video, digital audio, digital optical audio, DVI video, and HDMI audio/video.
