If you look at the information for that cable you'd see....

Note: PC Computer Laptop can't use the cable directly

You can't hook this cable to the USB port of any system then plug the male RCA
connectors to the female RCA connector and then plug the 3.5mm jack into your
projector.  The USB ports can't act as Video drivers....

You need to tell people a few things....

What is the make and model of your projector?

What type of system is your Fedora system?  Desktop/Laptop?  What is the video HW? 
If a desktop, what type of video card?  Does it have one or two connectors?  Many
have a VGA and DVI connector and are capable to drive dual monitors.
