FeAtUres
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.
OVERVIEW
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, and has thumbscrews for easy connections.
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.

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 Communi cations 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.
At Black Box, we guarantee the best value and the best support.
You can even consult our Technical Support Experts before you buy if
you need help selecting just the right component for your application.
