The MuxLab 500140 Active VGA Balun II Kit (Rev C) allows transmission of VGA or component video up to 600' (180m) in a point-to-point configuration, using Cat5E/6 cable at 1920 x 1440 and 1080p resolution.
For installation at the CCTV applications, the balun features manual gain compensation adjustment that enhances the brightness, sharpness, and color intensity of the video signal, based on the actual cable conditions. The VGA balun supports remote power pass-thru connectivity up to 150' (46m) and local monitor output for added flexibility.
Providing a hassle-free cabling solution, the DDC compliant balun connects to equipment that includes PCs, laptops, monitors, LCD monitors, plasma screens, and DLP projectors. The 500140 Active VGA Balun II Kit is ideal for use in digital signage, residential, boardroom, classroom, and medical imaging video systems.
