Video Cables VGA/SVGA Adapters

Video Graphics Array (VGA) refers specifically to the display hardware first introduced with the IBM PS/2 line of computers in 1987,[1] but through its widespread adoption has also come to mean either an analog computer display standard, the 15-pin D-subminiature VGA connector or the 640x480 resolution itself. VGA was the last IBM graphics standard to which the majority of PC clone manufacturers conformed, making it the lowest common denominator that virtually all post-1990 PC graphics hardware can be expected to implement. It was officially followed by IBM's Extended Graphics Array (XGA) standard, but was effectively superseded by numerous slightly different extensions to VGA made by clone manufacturers, collectively known as Super VGA. Today, the VGA analog interface is used for high definition video, including resolutions of 1080p and higher.

Super Video Graphics Array or Ultra Video Graphics Array, almost always abbreviated to Super VGA, Ultra VGA or just SVGA or UVGA is a broad term that covers a wide range of computer display standards.

"The term 'Super VGA' is used in this document for a graphics display controller implementing any superset of the standard IBM VGA display adapter." When used as a resolution specification, in contrast toVGA or XGA for example, the term SVGA normally refers to a resolution of 800x600 pixels. wikipedia
