The 'F type' connector typically is not used for video cables but rather for coaxial cables in television and internet applications. Video cables such as HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI, and VGA each use their specific connectors none of which are the 'F type'. HDMI uses its proprietary connector while DisplayPort has a unique latch-style connector. DVI cables come in different versions (DVI-D, DVI-I, and DVI-A) with distinct pin configurations, and VGA cables use a 15-pin D-sub connector. In contrast, the 'F type' connector screws onto a threaded interface as commonly seen on the back of a TV or cable modem.
