You need the display on the factory floor but the PC in the office. Or the monitor out on a construction site where a short VGA cable just won't reach.
The ATEN VE150A runs your VGA signal up to 150 metres over standard Cat 5e cabling. Transmitter at the source, receiver at the display, one cable between them. No fibre, no proprietary runs.
Resolution scales with distance: 1920 x 1200 at 30 m, 1600 x 1200 at 100 m, 1280 x 1024 at 150 m. The adjustable gain control lets you dial in signal strength for your specific run length.
Built-in 8 kV/15 kV ESD protection keeps the unit alive in dusty, high-interference environments. Rack mountable when you need it tidy on a shelf. Hot-plug support means you can swap displays without killing the system.
No software. No drivers. Plug and play
