ACT 15 metre High Performance VGA extension cable male-female with metal hoods

The ACT AK9031 15 metre High Performance VGA extension cable provides a reliable way to extend VGA connections between a source and a display. Designed with a male-to-female VGA (D-Sub) connector pair and durable metal hoods, this 15 m cable maintains signal continuity over extended runs while keeping a compact, black design suitable for professional and home environments.

Advantages

This VGA extension cable maintains analogue video signal integrity across a 15 metre distance by using shielded conductors and secure D-Sub connections. The metal hoods add mechanical durability and improved connector shielding to reduce interference. The male-to-female configuration allows straightforward daisy-chaining with existing VGA cables or direct connection to VGA-equipped monitors, projectors and graphics sources. Its black jacket provides discreet installation in AV racks, classrooms, or meeting rooms.

Suitable for

• Extending VGA connections between PCs and monitors
• Connecting laptops or desktop PCs to projectors for presentations
• Linking VGA-equipped media players or legacy video devices to displays
• Temporary or permanent AV installations in classrooms, offices, or conference rooms

How to use

Connect the male VGA end of the ACT extension cable to the VGA output of your graphics source or to the free end of an existing VGA cable. Attach the female VGA connector to the VGA input on the display device or projector, then secure the connector screws to ensure a stable mechanical and electrical connection. Adjust display settings on the source device as required to match the resolution supported by the display. When using long analogue runs, verify image quality and, if necessary, reduce resolution or use signal-equalising equipment to compensate for any attenuation.

Recommendations

For best results, keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources (power cables, large transformers) and avoid tight bends near the connectors. For very long runs or when delivering high-resolution signals, consider using signal boosters or switching to a digital interface if available on your devices.
