The Gefen 2X VGA Extender
The Gefen 2X VGA Extender allows you to extend VGA video at great distances, up to 1,000 feet from the video source. A single industry-standard CAT5 cable is used to carry the video signal. The 2X VGA receiver unit has two VGA video outputs, so you can connect more than one monitor if so desired at the remote location.
How It Works
You simply hook up the 2X VGA sender unit to your VGA video source using the supplied 6-foot VGA mating cable, then run your CAT-5 cable to the 2xVGA Receiver unit. At the remote end, connect your display(s) to the 2X VGA Receiver and your video will be extended flawlessly.
OPERATION NOTES
READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE 2X VGA EXTENDER
•Resolutions up to WUXGA (1920 x 1200) are supported.
•Maximum extension of CAT-5 or CAT-5e distance of 1000 feet (300 meters).
•Display information (EDID) is not sent back to the source. Standard VESA resolutions should be output by most computers without the need of an EDID. If using a non-VESA standard resolution or if EDID is needed, an EDID storage and relay device is necessary. Gefen recommends the use of a DVI Detective (part# EXT-DVI-EDIDN) with two VGA to DVI adapters.
