User Manual
FAQ
What devices is this VGA cable compatible with?
This cable is designed for monitors, PCs, and video devices that use standard VGA ports with HD-15 male connectors. It supports analog video signals and is ideal for legacy systems, office workstations, and presentation equipment where VGA connectivity is required.
How does the ferrite core improve performance?
The ferrite core reduces electromagnetic interference from external sources, such as power cables or electronic devices, helping maintain clear video signals. This interference protection is especially valuable in environments with high electronic activity to prevent signal degradation.
What is Display Data Channel (DDC) compatibility?
DDC compatibility allows the cable to support communication between a computer and monitor for automatic display configuration, such as resolution and refresh rate settings. The HD-15 connectors have pins 9 and 15 enabled to facilitate this feature, simplifying setup in multi-monitor or plug-and-play scenarios.
Is this cable suitable for in-wall or plenum installations?
Yes, the jacket is rated CL2, CSA FT4, and CMP, making it suitable for use in plenum spaces and certain in-wall applications where flame resistance and safety standards are required. Always check local building codes for specific installation guidelines.
What is the warranty on this VGA cable?
Black Box provides a lifetime limited warranty for this cable, covering defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty reflects the product's durable construction and reliability for long-term use in commercial and office environments.
Can this cable be used for extended distances beyond 5 feet?
This cable is optimized for 5-foot connections, providing reliable signal integrity at that length. For longer distances, consider using a VGA booster or active cable to prevent signal loss, as analog video signals can degrade over extended runs without amplification.
What refresh rate or brightness details are available?
Display-oriented products are best judged through screen, connectivity, and installation specifications. Those facts help buyers confirm visual fit, mounting flexibility, and deployment suitability more clearly than generic summary text.
What input or connectivity options are listed?
Connectivity options include HD-15 - Male, helping the product integrate into common office or home setups.
