Product Features
Technical Overview
This VGA cable utilizes a triple coaxial plus twisted-pair wire design to preserve video signal quality across its 50-foot length. The impedance-matched 75-ohm construction ensures full brightness and vibrant color reproduction, preventing signal degradation that can occur with standard cables. The 28 AWG wire gauge balances flexibility with durability, suitable for both permanent installations and temporary setups.
Each HD-15 male connector is precision-molded with PVC strain relief to withstand repeated plugging and unplugging, reducing the risk of connector damage. The cable's ferrite beads and EMI shielding effectively suppress electromagnetic interference, maintaining a stable video output even in electrically noisy environments.
