About the Extender Series VGA Line Drivers

The Extron Extender Series are one-input VGA–UXGA line drivers with audio. There are nine models in the series: Extender AAP, Extender AAP EX, Extender WM, Extender D, Extender WM AAP, Extender WM AUS, Extender MK, Extender AKM UK AAP, and Extender AKM MAAP. They boost the video signal between a laptop or desktop computer and a monitor or projector. Each has a 300 MHz (-3 dB) video bandwidth.

Each line driver accepts one computer-video input and one stereo audio input. Each Extender also features one buffered VGA-type RGB output and one stereo audio output. With an optional Mac/VGA adapter, the Extender can also buffer Macintosh signals.

Differences between the models

All Extender models are functionally identical but they have mounting options.
