3 Overview
The high quality CVG-VP4xl 1:4 VGA Distributor is a 1:4 distribution
amplifier designed for VGA-type signals including VGA, SVGA, XGA and
UXGA. It accepts an input, provides necessary buffering and isolation and
then distributes the signal to 4 identical outputs. In addition, the input and
outputs are DC coupled and conform to the highest standards.
Achieving the best performance means:
• Connecting only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding
interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated
noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)
• Avoiding interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may
adversely influence signal quality
• Positioning your CVG-VP4xl unit in a location free from moisture and
away from excessive sunlight and dust
