FAQs
What is the maximum cable length for VGA without signal loss?
VGA is an analog standard that can tolerate longer cable runs than digital signals. At 3 metres, this cable is well within acceptable distance for quality video transmission. For distances beyond 10 metres, signal degradation may occur; however, the double-shielded construction and ferrite core in this cable provide optimal protection against interference.
Can I use this cable with modern digital displays?
This cable is designed for VGA (analog) connections. Modern displays typically use HDMI or DisplayPort. However, if your display has a legacy VGA port, this cable will work. If your display is digital-only, you will need a VGA-to-HDMI converter or a native HDMI cable.
What does DDC mean and why is it important?
DDC (Display Data Channel) allows the monitor to communicate with the computer, enabling automatic resolution detection and display configuration. This cable's full 15-pin connectivity supports DDC, ensuring plug-and-play operation without manual settings adjustments.
Why does this cable have a ferrite core?
The ferrite core reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radiofrequency interference (RFI) that can distort video signals. In busy office environments with multiple electronic devices, ferrite cores help maintain clear, stable image quality on your display.
Is this cable suitable for projectors?
Yes. Many projectors, particularly older or professional models, feature VGA ports. This 3-metre extension cable can connect a projector to a computer or laptop, providing flexible installation options in meeting rooms and presentation spaces.
What warranty is included?
This cable is covered by a 12-month manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. If the cable fails during this period, it can be replaced or repaired.
