VGA Video Splitter/Extender via CAT5 Digital Signage Product

Features & Applications

The VOPEX® VGA Video Splitter/Extender simultaneously broadcasts high-resolution video from one computer to 4, 8, or 16 remote monitors located up to 600 feet away using CAT5/5e/6 cable. Optional audio functionality using self-powered stereo speakers enhances presentations.

The VOPEX VGA video splitter/extender system has two components: the VOPEX-C5V-xC VGA broadcast unit, which connects to the host computer and also supplies video to a local monitor, and an XTENDEX® ST-C5V-R-600 remote unit for each remote monitor. The units are interconnected by CAT5/5e/6 cable.
  • Broadcast real-time VGA video or audio/video to multiple display locations.
  • Supports resolutions up to 1920x1440.
  • Optional audio can be broadcast to self-powered stereo speakers at the local unit and each remote location.
  • Easily expandable. Add remote units as you add monitors.
  • A pure hardware solution–no software conflicts.
  • High quality rugged steel construction with durable powder coat finish.
  • Ideal for digital signage, movie theater lobbies, point of purchase displays, conference centers, airports, and other applications that require multiple displays.
