How to use

Ensure both devices are powered off or switched to a safe state before connecting. Align the 15-pin VGA connector with the device's VGA input and gently insert it until the connector seats. Secure the connector using the integrated thumbscrews or fastening screws on each end to maintain a firm mechanical connection. After the cable is attached, power on the source and display and select the VGA input on the display device if required. Adjust display settings on the source device to match the monitor or projector resolution.

Recommendations

To preserve signal quality, avoid tightly bending or sharply kinking the cable and keep it away from high-power electrical equipment that can cause interference. For best results with higher resolutions, verify that both source and display support the desired resolution and refresh rate across an analogue VGA link.
