Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

It works perfectly. Works as advertised! Worked fine, solid build.

Made in taiwan, and has a quality case. Great packaging for future storage. No complaint. Great product. Great value for the money.

This is a cheap way to extend a screen. Displays are much sharper and clearer than before. Crisp clear image and super easy to use.

Bought to split the vga signal from an old computer to a vga crt and capture device. Sent signal through 110 feet of cable to a projector. Power connector is a stander dc power supply * connector.

This is perfect as it plugs in with usb, and works like a charm. Nice, simple switch for splitting video and sending to multiple devices.



Cons

Plugged this unit in and had terrible ghosting. Don't know if defective or what. Wasted my money.

Quality


Works as promised, and solid build gives confidence.


Simple, reliable, easy to use, works well.


While this splitter provides the exact same excellent quality display on both monitors, it does not extend the display.


It made the video images very degraded.

Price


This product was a good purchase like i would have gotten from any of our previous tech vendors - only less expensive!


This equipment performed as advertised and it was a great price.


You need to buy an adapter like startech gc15hsf gender changer to work, less than $3.


Seems a bit overpriced but works as advertised

Shipping


Excellent response time from the vendor on shipment.


Arrived right on time was exactly as the product said.

Competitiveness


Tried several others prior to going back to this tried and true brand.


I think the image cleaned up a bit in addition compared to the same cable driven from the laptop without the startech.


Note: i just updated the computer and now i have to find a similar device for hdmi.

    Previously i tried an unpowered vga splitter that dimmed both screens when they were in use simultaneously

    I also tried a powered hdmi splitter which worked but the power connector was a micro usb port which became intermittent over time

    Then i found this startech product

    If you have a situation that requires mirroring your displays this is a solid solution


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Needed a powered vga splitter for my use case as a nonpowered splitter would not supply enough power it would darken the screen when the second display was hooked up

    I tried two other monitor splittersduplicators before this one powered one not powered
