OVERVIEW
Because VGA video signals are analog signals, it’s
preferable to use a coaxial cable for the video lines for
optimum performance. The coaxial cable provides the
optimum impedance match of the video driver to cable
at 75 ohms. Our Premium VGA Video Extension Cable is
constructed with three 75-ohm mini coaxial cables plus seven
24-gauge conductors under either a PVC or plenum jacket.
The seven additional conductors provide support for all the
control leads. VGA cards typically provide three monitor ID bit
leads, a horizontal sync, a vertical sync, and two ground leads.
Our Premium VGA Video Extension Cable provides a unique
conductor for each of these leads so that your expensive
equipment will not be compromised. Newer multimedia
workstations require and use all the VGA control lines.

This cable is constructed with the finest materials
available. The cable is UL
®
CL2 CMP and CSA FT4 listed
for buildings’ electric code requirements. The connectors
are molded on for greater strength and durability. Each
connector is 100% shielded for EMI/RFI protection.
Thumbscrews are used for ease of connection.
Use the cable to put your monitor up to 100 feet (30.5 m)
away. With a video splitter, you can put your monitor up to
250 feet (76.2 m) away from your CPU.
Use the VGA Video Cables with Ferrite Core for connecting
your monitors to other video equipment for professional
PC-based presentations. These cables are double shielded to
extend monitor signals, and pins 9 and 15 are enabled for
compliance with the Display Data Channel (DDC) standard.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
• Connect a remote monitor to a network server.
• Attach your monitors to splitters.
• Run multiple CPUs from one monitor via a switch.
Recognize any of these situations?
• You wait more than 30 minutes to get through
to a vendor’s tech support.
• The so-called “tech” can’t help you or gives you
the wrong answer.
• You don’t have a purchase order number and the
tech refuses to help you.
• It’s 9 p. m. and you need help, but your vendor’s
tech support line is closed.
According to a survey by Data Communications
magazine, 90% of network managers surveyed say
that getting the technical support they need is extremely
important when choosing a vendor. But even though
network managers pay anywhere from 10 to 20% of their
overall purchase price for a basic service and support
contract, the technical support and service they receive falls
far short of their expectations—and certainly isn’t worth
what they paid.
