[EDIT : I'm Dumb, That was not, Serial, that was AV. So it's a cable for the Guncon.. Thank you for your answers]

Hi everyone,

I have a strange PS1 cable that I can’t identify. It looks factory-made (everything is nicely molded, not a DIY job). Also, I'm in france, so it's probably a euro thing.

  • It plugs into the Serial I/O port (the small rectangular port on the back of the PS1, normally used for Link Cable).
  • On the PS1 side: a Serial I/O connector that has a female yellow composite RCA jack molded directly onto the back of it.
  • On the TV side: a standard Scart (Péritel) plug, with two male RCA cables (white + red audio) coming out of it.

Does anyone know what this cable is exactly? Why use the Serial I/O port ? is it just as a physical anchor? I’ve never seen one like this before.

Thanks!
