OVERVIEW
With the 2-Channel VGA Booster, you can view the output of a VGA adapter on one or two monitors simultaneously. You can place each monitor up to 700 ft. (213.4 m) away from the booster, depending on the VGAoperating mode.
The booster works with color VGA, monochrome VGA, 8514/A VGA, or XGA monitors. Simply install a jumper for the type of monitor you are using.
Two front-panel knobs let you choose any cable length up to 700 ft. (213.4 m) for each output. Since the outputs operate independently, the cable lengths can be different for each output. So placing your monitors exactly where you need them is a breeze!
The booster’s advanced circuitry ensures that your VGA signal will be free of distortion, giving you crisp, clear, images on your monitors.
A 6-foot (1.8-m) DB15HD male-to-male input cable is included with the booster to connect your PC’s CPU to the booster.
TYPICAL APPLICA TIONS

• Add VGA Video Splitters to view up to 20 monitors at once. For example, in a large retail store, you might want to keep tabs on inventory as it changes rapidly during a store sale.

The 2-Channel VGA Booster is easy to configure for your application. It has two front-panel knobs (one for each inde­pendent output) for configuring cable length, and jumper settings for configuring monitor type.
• Each output has a single front-panel knob that adjusts to
the length of cable you plan to use. For reliable and easy setup, all equalization parameters are set automatically, so you don’t need to internally adjust controls. Knob positions that correspond to specific cable lengths are shown in the Specifications section on this page.
• As shipped, the booster is internally jumpered to support a
standard color VGA monitor. You can change these jumpers to support different monitor types—including color VGA, monochrome VGA, 8514/A VGA, and XGA. Jumper settings for each monitor type are shown in the Specifications section on this page.
