Tripp Lite VGA over Cat5 / Cat6 Extender, Transmitter and Receiver, USB Powered
Long VGA runs get bulky fast and pulling thick analog video lines through conduit is miserable work. We built this pair to send video across ordinary twisted-pair copper instead. One unit attaches to the computer, the other sits at the monitor, and the connection rides on patch cable you can route through walls or drop ceilings.
Price as our retail partner last listed it. They set it and they can change it, so the figure on their page is the one that counts at checkout.

How this one is built
Integrated dongle cabling
Molded video connectors are built right into both the transmitter and receiver housings. You plug directly into the source and the display without buying or dressing extra patch leads between the boxes and your hardware.
Bus powered operation
Power draws directly from an available USB port on the host computer. There is no bulky external transformer to find an outlet for behind a crowded desk or up on a display mount.
Image adjustment dials
Built-in equalization and gain controls let you tune the signal manually once the cable is pulled. A quick adjustment sharpens the picture and clears up ghosting caused by long wire runs.
TAA compliant hardware
This kit complies with the Federal Trade Agreements Act for government contracting and GSA Schedule purchases. It fits straight into public sector installations and institutional rollouts.
