The VGA + RS232 Extender transmits VGA video up to 600 feet away from a computer using CAT5/5e/6/6a cable. Each video extender consists of a local unit that connects to a computer and also supplies video to a local monitor, and a remote unit that connects to a monitor.
Supports local and remote VGA monitors.
Supports resolutions to 1920x1440.
Built-in surge protection.
Sharpest and clearest VGA quality over CAT5 of any manufacturer.
Use in-house CAT5/5e/6/6a phone wiring to locate a monitor remotely.
Baud rate up to 56,000.
Supports TXD, RXD, DTR, DSR, CTS, and RTS.

Note:
CAT6 cable has a higher skew than CAT5/5e cable, which causes colors to smear.
Since these extenders do not have internal skew compensation, they work at
shorter distances with CAT6 cable.
