The STARTECH ST122UTPA is a VGA video extender designed for business and IT environments requiring video signal distribution over longer distances than standard VGA cables allow. This unit extends a VGA video signal, along with associated audio, over a single Cat 5 cable. It is suitable for scenarios where a display needs to be located remotely from a source device, such as in conference rooms, classrooms, or digital signage applications where existing network cabling infrastructure can be leveraged. The extender addresses the common problem of VGA signal degradation over long runs and simplifies cable management by utilizing readily available Cat 5 cabling.
