A picture would really help but otherwise would I go for the same answer as SunnySkyguy.

Monitors receive video (picture) signals from a PC via either a VGA (or S-VGA) cable or a DVI cable.
VGA stands for Video Graphics Array

Now I see it... you are thinking of the "Zebra cable" used for solderless connections to flat brown flexcct or Kapton and flex copper etched wiring... (using xtal ball to see your connector)
