VOPEX-C5VA-4C Local Unit (Front & Back) and ST-C5VA-600 Remote Unit
Features & Applications
The VOPEX® VGA Video Splitter/Extender simultaneously broadcasts high-resolution video from one computer to 4, 8, or 16 remote monitors located up to 600 feet away using CAT5/5e/6 cable. Optional audio functionality using self-powered stereo speakers enhances presentations.
The VOPEX VGA video splitter/extender system has two components: the VOPEX-C5V-xC VGA broadcast unit, which connects to the host computer and also supplies video to a local monitor, and an XTENDEX® ST-C5V-R-600 remote unit for each remote monitor. The units are interconnected by CAT5/5e/6 cable.
Supports resolutions up to 1920x1440.
Optional audio can be broadcast to self-powered stereo speakers at the local unit and each remote location.
Easily expandable. Add remote units as you add monitors.
Meets the electrostatic discharge (ESD) immunity requirements of IEC/EN 61000-4-2.
High quality rugged steel construction with durable powder coat finish.
Available in optional rackmount enclosure.
Includes cable management shelf.
Ideal for digital signage, movie theater lobbies, point of purchase displays, conference centers, airports, and other applications that require multiple displays.
