TruLink™
4 Port VGA over UTP Extender- Base Unit
USER MANUAL
Model #39960

Introduction
The TruLink™ VGA over UTP Extender Base Unit, when used with the Remote Unit (part
#39961), is a robust solution that allows you to extend your VGA signal up to 300 meters (1000
feet) over a Cat5E Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)cable. This solution is ideal for applications
where your VGA monitor needs to be placed further than the average 100 foot VGA cable
limitation. Driving a VGA signal over Cat5E allows you to take advantage of your UTP cable
infrastructure already installed for a cost-effective and reliable installation.
The TruLink VGA over UTP solution is ideal for applications when you need to place your
computer in remote location. This is common in digital signage applications typical in retail stores,
houses of worship, classrooms, and board rooms where you need video presentation in one
room but want th e computer to be out of sight and in a s afe and secure e nvironment. With the
TruLink VGA over UTP Extender, you can place your display across the room, on another floor,
or in another building while your computer remains in a convenient location.
