Pros

This is an excellent video extender that worked exactly as advertised. I use this in our church, where we run a monitor screen to the front of the stage for our band to use for lyrics cues. This product works fantastic and provides a cheap solution to... Read More

The repeater unit is great when running two projectors as you can loop through from the first projector. The transmitter has 2 female vga connectors for 2 local monitor and one male on it. The one downside is that you will need a female to male adapte... Read More

Great buy for $89. They had been manufactured discontinued for several years. Shipped on time.

Much easier to run a cat5 cable than try to squeeze a vga cable through tight holes and runs. Installed it at the back tech booth and has been going strong since.

Cons

Adjusting the unit with the adjustment screw/switch did not clear the ghosting. Power button blinks intermittently and i can't figure out what to do.

Price

We said no, ordered these, and fixed it for less than $150.

I didn't want to spend $100 for this but did as a last resort and it worked.

A tech company came in a quoted us like $2000 to order the part and fix.

Packaging/appearance

I didn't even have to adjust anything on the receiving box.

Competitiveness

Works perfectly, better than another brand that only lasted 3 weeks.

I tried several other vga extenders, but they would not work in this application.
