SIIG 4-Port VGA & Audio Transmitter

The SIIG 4-Port VGA & Audio Transmitter is a versatile, budget-friendly solution designed to extend VGA video and 2-channel stereo audio from a single source to up to four remote displays. Built for classrooms, meeting rooms, digital signage, and multi-monitor setups, this transmitter leverages economical CAT5/5e/6 cables to carry reliable video and audio signals over long distances. With support for VGA signals and a broad compatibility with standard displays, it helps you create seamless, synchronized viewing experiences without sacrificing image quality or breaking the bank.

• Multi-display VGA distribution over CAT5/5e/6: Stream a single source’s VGA video and stereo audio to four remote displays using ordinary ethernet-grade cables, reducing clutter and cost compared with long VGA runs.
• Long-reach performance at a practical resolution: Transmit VGA signals up to 1080 feet away while maintaining clear visuals at 800x600, making it ideal for sizable classrooms, lecture halls, and conference spaces where distance is a factor.
• Two-channel stereo audio passthrough: Carry left and right audio to each connected display for a complete multimedia experience, ensuring your presentations, videos, and demonstrations are heard as well as seen.
• Designed for compatibility and easy integration: Works with standard VGA sources and displays, enabling quick setup with existing equipment in most AV environments and minimizing compatibility concerns.
• Cost-effective, scalable solution: Start with four displays and expand later by adding compatible receivers, leveraging existing CAT5/5e/6 cabling without needing specialized cable runs or equipment.
