Hi All,
Sorry if this has been answered before - have been through this section and read some posts but want some advice to make sure I'm going in the right direction.
My company has just started to run our own conferences throughout the UK and we have bought our own kit to use and this is all new to me and this is where I have an issue.
We tried running vga over cat5 with the following setup below but found that any distance over 20m caused the image to dull. This is a portal solution so we need to be able to have a setup that can handle a room lengths of max 50m length.
Current Setup:
Laptop on stage VGA output connected to a Kramer PT110 Transmitter which then goes over Cat5 to a Kramer PT120 reciever which then connects VGA into a Kramer VP‐719xl Switcher (have other feeds going into ie DVD player).
From Kramer Swicher VGA connection to Transmitter over CAT5 to Reciever then VGA connection into Projector.
This is where I need some help:
Is Kramer stuff not up to the job when it comes to the lengths we require?
I have seen Magenta, Extron and FSR mentioned - would these do the job?
Also is Cat5 the right way to be going as I have seen other things suggested?
How are you guys handling these kinds of length because I know it should be possible?
On a side note - we would like to add an option of capturing a flip chart and projecting it onto the screen.
Thanks in advanced - sorry if I sound dumb about this but it's all new to me.
