Warning! This page pertains to IBM's 13W3 video
interface used by the RS/6000 line. While Sun, SGI, and
Intergraph also used the 13W3 for video output, each manufacturer employed
different pinouts and sync signals. YMMV.

I got the 13W3 pinout from the port of my Image-I. It IS correct.

Missing Pins
The key position pin 9, above, corresponds with an obstruction
on many system unit video ports, this is intended to reduce the likelihood of
something other than a monitor being plugged into the port and so offers
limited protection to the electronics on the video adapter card.
DDC uses this pin for power and reassigns the ID bits for DDC signaling.
Older monitors do not use all the pin positions available.
The following were manufactured with pins intentionally missing:

I use one of these

ok.
HD15 to 5BNC
From a cable that Dick Evans gave me, along with a 6091-019, here it is:
All shields are tied together to shield on HD15 and pins 4,6,7,8,10,11
Pins 5, 12 and 15 are NC.

Waiting for SOMEONE to send me the pinout of a WORKING Image-I
to 5BNC cable, used on a 6091-xxx monitor.

Cable 09G3589, FC 4229, about 1.83 m long.
There is a Display Conversion Cable, 13W3 to 5 BNC, 52G3255 FC4213,
about a foot long.
Matrox 13W3 to 5BNC Pinout
Note: Pin numbering and arrangement
images the GXT150M pinout:
HSYNC uses Pin 5, but the return is Pin 10.
VSYNC uses Pin 2, return on 10.
If you look at the GXT150M pinout:
HSYNC is Pin 5 with return on Pin 4.
VSYNC is Pin 9 with return on Pin 10.
