Tripp Lite VGA over Cat5 / Cat6 Extender, Transmitter and Receiver, USB Powered
Long video runs across a drop ceiling or through conduit get awkward fast with thick analog leads. This kit uses standard twisted-pair cabling to carry a VGA feed between a source and a display across the room. Both ends draw power right from a nearby USB port, so there are no wall warts to plug in.

How this one is built
Integrated pigtail leads
Built-in VGA connectors attach straight to the back of the computer and the monitor. You do not need to hunt down extra patch leads or adapters to get the hardware linked up.
Bus power connection
A USB lead on each unit pulls current directly from the source machine or the display. That keeps the power strip clear and saves you from finding extra AC outlets near the wall mount.
Image adjustment dials
Built-in equalization and gain controls let you trim the signal by hand. A quick tweak sharpens the focus and clears up skew after the signal travels down a long run of twisted-pair wire.
Federal schedule ready
This kit complies with the Federal Trade Agreements Act for GSA Schedule purchases. It fits right into government installations and municipal IT builds that require compliant hardware.
