It is similar to the RFU adapter cable available for the PlayStation.AV (Composite) cable The AV cable (SCPH-10500) is included with the PS2 and carries dual-channel (stereo) audio and at 576i/50 Hz (PAL) or 480i/60 Hz (NTSC). The PS2 is compatible with all and cables which use the AV-multi port.RFU adapter The RFU Adapter (SCPH-1122) is an and cable that carries mono audio and video at /50 Hz (PAL) or /60 Hz (NTSC) via an signal and connects using a. Additionally, the PS2 features a port, which facilitates the output of digital audio - 2-channel, 5.1-channel and 5.1-channel (the latter two are only available during DVD playback when it is encoded on the disk). PlayStation cableVarious A/V cables have been made available for the PlayStation 2, which offer varying levels of picture quality. However the eject button will only work on PS2 models SCPH-100xx to -500xx, as the slimline PlayStation 2 models had no motorized disc tray to eject.Both versions of the remote feature all the standard PS2 buttons in addition to DVD playback controls. The second, SCPH-10420, is functionally and visually identical apart from the addition of eject and reset/power buttons. The first remote SCPH-10150 came bundled (as SCPH-10170) with an infra-red receiver dongle SCPH-10160 which attached to one of the PlayStation 2's controller ports this dongle is not needed on later PS2 models (beginning from SCPH-500xx) and slimline PS2 models (SCPH-700xx to SCPH-900xx) as they feature an integrated IR port.There are two different models of the DVD remote control released, which only had minor differences. PS2 DVD remote controlThe DVD remote control is an infra-red remote control for the PlayStation 2 designed to allow easier control of DVD movies. The 'big button controllers' available for the Xbox 360 heavily resemble buzzers in many respects, and fulfil the same function. Both the wired and wireless versions of the buzzers are compatible with both PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3. A second dongle is required for additional buzzers (for 8 player games). Wireless versions connect via a USB dongle, with each dongle able to support up to 4 wireless buzzers at a time. Pitfalls of SCART switchingIf you regularly use several games consoles, sooner or later you will run out of SCART sockets on your TV/Video processor. This does not mean that the cable carries only composite video, of course, merely that the composite video output is used for synchronisation. This is not always the case however, some consoles may need modifications to make the pure sync signal more stable, or to bring the voltage into line with SCART standards.New retrogamers are sometimes confused when they see cables sold and described as using “composite video for sync”.

Usually, to use pure sync, all you need to do is desolder the composite video connection from pin 20, and replace it with a connection to the consoles pure sync line (in the NTSC Saturn’s case, that’s pin 1). Users of the XRGB line of video-processors in particular have noticed that using pure sync rather than sync on composite video can give better results. There are instances however, where using a pure sync (also known as a raw sync, clean sync or pure composite sync) signal results in a better and/or more stable picture.

Board project: i added a diode (don't invert the polarization otherwise this will not work) between the Playstation 2 Green and the VGA green pins, this way i can remove the synchronization from green.

But be aware that every hardware has its own specifications and limitations, also every Playstation 2 has its own specifications and limitations, so If you are not an expert, and you don't know what you are doing, don't try to attempt this.

Do this at your own risk, I'm not responsible for what might happen to your hardware, make sure you do everything with caution, you follow up the instructions correctly and carefully and you always analyze voltage and amperage endings to make sure what you are doing is meeting your hardware specifications.This mod worked for me, but it doesn't mean that it might end up working the same way for you, i just tested it with my Playstation 2, always making sure that nothing will blow up. There are monitors that natively support SOG (sync-on-green), and others that don't, the others that don't support it, they need some extra components to separate the video sync from the green channel, and that can be done with a LM1881 chip in order to make it work.
