Overview
The VS102 2-Port Video Splitter takes a single VGA input signal
and splits it into 2 VGA outputs, each at 250 MHz after
duplication. The VS102 can boost signals and extend the
transmission up to 65m with a built in video gain knob for display
adjustment at different distances.

video source into two VGA output signals, which can be
transmitted to displays over long distance.
