How could an adapter cable help with my existing equipment?

Technology is changing all the time. Adapters and converters allow you to connect older equipment with new equipment, eliminating the need for a complete upgrade.

Why are "male" and "female" used in the product descriptions about cables?

"Male" and "female" describe the type of connection ends on the cable. Be sure to check which ones you need for your devices. A "male" connection will have little pins visible on the connection end. A "female" connection will have small holes visible.

Will I lose resolution running the signal through VGA to AV adapter cables?

The resolution these adapters deliver remains strong even after distances of more than 50 feet.
