ATEN VE150A VGA Cat 5 Extender (1280 x 1024 @ 150 m)
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ATEN VE150A VGA Cat 5 Extender (1280 x 1024 @ 150 m) - 2 Years Local Warranty
VGA Up to 150 m on One Cable
The VE150A transmitter and receiver kit extends a VGA display signal over a single Cat 5e cable, up to 150 m from the source, for projectors, monitors and signage far from the PC.
Resolution to Suit the Distance
It delivers 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz at 30 m, 1600 x 1200 @ 60 Hz at 100 m and 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz at 150 m.
Local and Remote Displays
The transmitter has a local VGA output so a monitor can stay beside the source, while the receiver drives the remote display. A manual gain control knob on the receiver fine-tunes the picture for the cable length.
Solid and Mountable
Metal housings, DDC support, ESD protection and hot-plugging, with rack-mount capability and a mounting kit included.
