CTA Nationally Adopts Multimedia Systems - Analogue Interface Guide

Published on October 2025

CTA has recently published ANSI/CTA-6007, Multimedia systems - Guide to the Recommended Characteristics of Analogue Interfaces to Achieve Interoperability IEC 61938:2018. This standard represents the US National Adoption of IEC 61938:2018, which gives guidance on current practice for the characteristics of multimedia analogue interfaces to achieve interoperability between equipment from different manufacturers. It is not a performance standard. Recommendations for interfaces for equipment used in vehicles, and for analogue video interfaces for broadcast and similar equipment, are not given. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2013. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
