Overview 3 Overview This user manual describes the following products: Kramer TOOLS VP-200XLT XGA Line Amp / CAT 5 Transmitter, which accepts one computer graphics input and distributes the signal to its high-density 15 pin “D” connector output, as well as transmitting it over UTP cabling (CAT 5 or similar) to its appropriate receiver, see section 4 Kramer TOOLS VP-200XLTHD XGA Line Amp / CAT 5 Transmitter, which accepts one computer graphics input and distributes the signal to its high-density 15 pin “D”
Overview For a CAT 5 cable exceeding a distance of 50m, separate power supplies should be connected to the transmitter and to the receiver simultaneously. 3.2 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) / Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) We recommend that you use shielded twisted pair (STP) cable. There are different levels of STP cable available, and we advise you to use the best quality STP cable that you can afford. Our STP skew-free cable, Kramer BC-SXTP, is intended for transmitting VGA signals.
