The high performance CVG-VP3xl is a 1:3 distribution amplifier for
VGA/UXGA signals. The CVG-VP3xl:
Includes front panel EQ. control
Features two switches on the underside for ID Bit control

highest resolution graphics signal distribution
Accepts one input, provides necessary buffering and isolation, and
distributes the signal to its identical outputs
Is mains fed and is housed in a half 19" enclosure
Achieving the best performance means:
Connecting only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding
interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated
noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)
