Slim Specs Table

Engineered for Stable Analogue Video Delivery

This cable uses UL2919 approved 28 AWG triple mini coaxial conductors. This construction supports longer runs without significant signal loss. Triple shielding—copper braid, foil, and drain wire—helps maintain image clarity. For example, it can reduce ghosting or fuzziness in busy office environments.

DDC Support for Widescreen LCDs

The design includes support for DDC (Display Data Channel) communication. This allows the graphics card to read the monitor’s EDID data automatically. So, your system can select the optimal resolution and refresh rate. It is aimed at users connecting standard or widescreen LCDs that rely on DDC.

Practical Use Across UK Setups

This lead is useful for legacy kit and modern displays with VGA ports. However, it is a male-to-male cable only. In practice, you connect it directly from source to screen. If you use adapters or extenders, confirm compatibility separately. Also, check your device’s port orientation before purchase.

Compact 1 Metre Length

The 1 m length keeps desk areas tidy and reduces cable clutter. It suits close-proximity setups, such as a PC tower under a desk. Because it is short, it minimises signal attenuation compared with longer leads. So, it is ideal for fixed installations where the monitor sits near the source.
