Just recently aquired a pvm 2030, I try to avoid scart when I can since I output RGB from mister via BNC, all my pvm's are bnc, and I use bnc with my extron and rgb modded consumer crt's......so...... I would like a rgb cable for my 2030 that uses bnc.
The monitor came with a db25 to scart cable, and I have a scart to bnc cable but both scart heads on these cables are female so would need a male scart to male scart socket coupler, but that just seems like alot of unnecessary connection points.
Anyone build,buy, or modify a db25 to bnc cable for there pvm2030?
Is it as easy as finding the pinout, soldering bnc connectors to the end of a db25 cable?
PVM-2030 RGB cable with BNC connectors?

Wookieewin, who sells various CRT related cables on Ebay was kind enough to make me a custom BNC to DB25 cable to use with my Extron gear. I'll pass along his email in a PM if you want to give him a try.

I don't think Retro Access has the DB25 plugs to build with... I know Retro Gaming Cables UK does, but they don't normally do custom works. It might be worth checking with them if you strike out elsewhere.

Re: PVM-2030 RGB cable with BNC connectors?
I swear to god I saw a post about a PCB to go directly from Sony CMPTR DB25 to HD15 but can't locate it. Was it a fever dream?
My custom cable broke (even with strain relief) and I mangled two connectors trying to redo it. Sadly I think my days of soldering anything that close together are behind me. Screw down terminals for me going forward.
