Reliable Signal Duplication

The cable allows you to split one VGA source into two displays. This is perfect for mirroring a desktop to a secondary screen. Because it is a splitter, it does not extend the signal range. The total run length is limited by the 0.2m cable itself. In practice, this keeps signal loss to a minimum.

Triple-Shielded Construction

The cable uses UL2919 approved 28AWG triple mini-coaxial wires. It also features 4x 28AWG conductor cables. Furthermore, the triple shielding includes copper braid, foil, and a drain wire. This design protects against electromagnetic interference. So, your video signal remains clear and stable.

DDC Compatibility

This cable supports DDC (Display Data Channel) for standard monitors. It is suitable for widescreen LCDs that require this handshake. However, you should verify your monitor’s specific DDC needs. This ensures proper resolution detection. Also, it helps with plug-and-play functionality.

Compact and Tidy Installation

The 20cm length minimises cable clutter behind your desk. It connects directly from the PC port to the displays. Because it is short, it is not suitable for long-distance runs. This cable is designed for close-proximity setups. For example, it works well in kiosk environments.
