VGA cable ShiverPeaks BS78047-10 5 m

The ShiverPeaks BS78047-10 VGA cable 5 m connects VGA (D-Sub) devices over a 5-metre length, enabling analog video transmission between computers, monitors, projectors and other VGA-compatible equipment. The cable features male VGA connectors on both ends and a grey outer jacket for a neutral, office-friendly appearance. Designed for standard VGA signal levels, it provides a practical connection solution when longer cable runs are required without active signal conversion.

Advantages

This 5 m VGA cable offers straightforward plug-and-play operation with widely supported D-Sub connectors and a flexible design that facilitates routing around workspaces. The cable’s shielding and conductor design help maintain stable analog video quality across the length, while the durable outer jacket and molded connector ends increase resistance to wear from repeated insertions and handling.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs or laptops to external monitors
• Linking video sources to projectors in meeting rooms or classrooms
• Extending VGA connections between legacy devices and displays
• Temporary setups for presentations, demonstrations, or training

Key specifications

• Connector type: VGA (D-Sub) male-to-male
• Cable length: 5 metres
• Color: Grey outer jacket
• Signal type: Analog RGB video
• Construction: Shielded cable with molded connector ends

How to use

Connect one VGA connector to the video output of the source device and the other connector to the VGA input of the display device, ensuring screws are secured to prevent accidental disconnection. Configure the source and display resolution settings as required; VGA supports a range of analog resolutions but image quality can vary with display and cable length. Avoid tight bends or kinks in the cable and keep it away from strong electromagnetic sources to reduce interference.

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable for resolutions and distances within typical VGA capabilities. If you need higher resolutions or digital interfaces, consider using a digital cable or an active converter. Store the cable coiled loosely and avoid excessive twisting to prolong its service life.
