VGA means Video Graphics Array and its use gained popularity with analog computer applications including multi-media meeting rooms, schools, game rooms and alike. Let’s go over the different extenders available for VGA. When searching for this part, most people draw towards the affordable and economical solutions. VGA boosters (one in one out) or line drivers are convenient solutions for video and audio signals up to 200 feet. If your application needs a run of over 200 feet, such as an auditorium or a control center then a VGA extender that employs a CAT5/6/7 cable can take you up to 330 feet with resolutions up to 1280x1024. Anything longer than 330 feet will require fiber optic extenders which can transmit a video, audio and control signals up to 30 km or 18.75 miles with resolutions for UXGA up to 1600x1200. Fiber optic extension is typically used within building, airports, stadiums and university campuses.
