Vanco VGA over CAT5e/CAT6 Extender with Audio 280544, up to 500'
Video and audio, 500' down one cable.
The Vanco 280544 extends VGA video with audio over CAT5e/CAT6 cable for runs up to 500'. It gives AV installs a clean way to reach a display across the building.

VGA cables lose their reach fast.
A standard VGA run is limited by distance, and audio usually needs its own separate cable. Network-type cabling is easier to pull through walls and ceilings.
Built for long AV runs
The 280544 is made for installers and enthusiasts who want a dependable extender for new installs or upgrades.
VGA over network cable
Sends VGA video over CAT5e/CAT6 instead of a bulky VGA cable.

Maximum run length
VGA video and audio over CAT5e/CAT6 cable.
Audio included

Up to 500' reach
Supports runs of up to 500' between source and display.
Fits installs and upgrades
Suited to AV integrators, low-voltage installers and home theater setups.
