This pair of VGA baluns eliminate costly and bulky VGA cable, allowing a VGA source to be connected to a VGA
monitor or projector via Category 5e cable.
Used in pairs, the VGA balun allows VGA video to be transmitted up to 135 metres over Cat5e, at a resolution of 640 x
480 pixels.
Other qualities of signal may be transmitted over the following distances:
- VGA: 640 x 480 pixels (15MHz) 135m
- SVGA: 800 x 600 pixels (30MHz) 105m
- XGA: 1024 x 768 pixels (60MHz) 75m
- SXGA: 1280 x 1024 pixels (100MHz) 60m
You must use shielded twisted pair Cat5e (STP) cable for VGA transmission although unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
may be used if there is full signal ground continuity between the VGA source and the VGA display. NB: If you are using a laptop computer you must use
a shielded patch lead to connect to the balun to ensure continuity.
If you already have a network using NON shielded Cat5e cable, without ground continuity, then consider Active VGA baluns
or the Gefen VGA high resolution baluns.
Features
- Transmitter and receiver are identical, and interchangeable
- Balun connections: female HDD15 and RJ45
- Supplied with two 150mm male to male HDD15 cables for use with equipment having female connections
