What's the name of the plugs in USA?

It seems that USA televisions only use F Type connectors.

Hello,

The F - connector is for Cable TV to plug into. There are usually other
jacks as well. Composite video and left & right audio jacks that are RCA.
Some TVs have an S-video jack which is a 4 pin connector that gives better
picture quality over composite video. Newer TVs will have Component video
jacks which are 3 video jacks all RCA, this is better that composite or
S-Video and even newer TVs with have an HDMI or DVI connector on them.
Using Component video cables for your picture will be better but less
convienent that HDMI.

Hope this help.
