C64 Chroma / Luma video cable for the Commodore 64

If you want to order this cable, make sure you have a Commodore 64 with an 8-pin video output. Early Commodore 64 models didn't have a Chroma/Luma signal on the video port, as they only had a 5-pin DIN plug.
The 8-pin plug used by Commodore looks like a horseshoe; the standard 8-pin plug is more like a circular row of pins.
The two unusually placed pins (red) are not used by Commodore, so by removing the two unused pins, the plug can easily be modified to carry all signals and fit perfectly.

Features of the C64 Chroma / Luma video cable :

  • length of +/- 1.00 meters.
  • 3  x Tulp (Cinch) plug.
  • 8-pin DIN plug *.

Commodore uses a different DIN8 plug, the so-called horseshoe plug. The plug I use is not the original horseshoe plug, but a modified DIN8 plug that contains all the signals necessary for displaying images and sound.

This cable works with the following Commodore monitors:

  • 1701
  • 1702
  • 1802
  • 2080
  • Some models 1084 (Check if these support Chroma/Luma via RCA connectors)
