The Gefen VGA RS-232 Extender extends a VGA computer video and RS-232 up to 330 feet over just one CAT5 cable. The Sender hooks up to the computer or other VGA source and the Receiver connects to your display. The RS-232 extension is useful in controlling the functions your display remotely, such as turning it on and off, and selecting between inputs. By choosing widely available CAT5e cable for extension, Gefen has made installation simple and flexible. The CAT5e cable can be tucked under carpet or run above a ceiling.

How It Works
