Need help IDing cards.

Hey guys,
I recently acquired these cards as part of a lot. Any idea what these are what they are used for?

If you put them in a computer, TattleTech will tell you the manufacturer and product name. It isn't always helpful information, but is often a good start for searching old magazines on archive.org.

I can't remember the name of the company that made them - one of them is a graphics card and IIRC the other one is video capture. Note though that the one that's graphics has really weird resolutions because it's designed for broadcast graphics, not desktop use. I nearly picked a pair of them up but sanity prevailed because they're not very useful.

One of them looks like the Video Explorer:

@crazyben Did you get the breakout cable to go with it?

Unfortunately no. It just cards. I think the connector thar connects two are on top are missing too. Unless. It’s not needed.
