Replacement composite video out cable for the //c

I need to replace the composite video cable that connects my Apple //c to its 9" monitor.

Can I use any plain composite video cable with RCA connectors, or are there special requirements?

Would a regular "yellow" modern cable work? Like this one: https://t.ly/M7Ot

Any one including the one you

Any one including the one you link to will work, however it looks like a cheapie.  You might want to spend a little more and get a higher gauge one with better shielding and plated contacts so it will last a long time.

RCA composite

That was the point of the video composite out jack on the back of the Apple //c: a way to have an inexpensive color monitor.

I used it to connect to my 25" Color TV and enjoyed color graphics.
