Explanation

S-video (Separate Video) uses a DIN-6 connector, which is a mini-DIN connector with 4 pins (though the housing is often referenced as DIN-6 style). It separates the video signal into luma (brightness) and chroma (color) channels, improving picture quality over composite video. DB-15 is used for VGA connections, DB-25 is used for parallel ports and some serial connections, and DB-9 is used for RS-232 serial ports - none of these are associated with S-video.
