  • Extends video cables by up to 500 ft. (150m)
  • Uses standard Category 5 straight-wired, twisted-pair, network patch cable for economical and reliable data transmission
  • Included mounting brackets


The ST121UTP VGA Video Extender over Cat5 allows you to extend your VGA video signal by up to 150 meters (500 feet) and connect up to 4 displays (2 local and 2 remote) from that single source.

Worked great for extending the location of the VGA monitor on the server. It would be nice if the extender came with the cables. The transmitter has 2 female VGA connectors for 2 local monitor and one male on it. The male connector on the extender connects to the computer. SO don't forget to order the male to female cable. Most VGA monitor cables are male to male. The one that came with you monitor is most likely a male to male. You will need a cat5 or cat6 cable to send the video to the receiving end. The receiving end has 2 female connectors on it for 2 monitors. A standard VGA monitor cable with the receiving end.

I have had monitors connected to Closed Circuit TV DVR's located 150 feet away for several years. The remotes on the VGA Extenders that I was using would frequently go out after storms or power surges. They had been manufactured discontinued for several years. I was geeting used and new from Ebay. I tried several other VGA Extenders, but they would not work in this application. These have been in service for over a month now and work great.

El adaptador da una muy buena cablidad de video, cuando intente instalarlo me di cuenta que necesitaba un cable adicional de Video el cual posteriormente vi que no lo incluye, pero no importa por que lo pude conseguir.

Great, but BEWARE: title says "2 Remote" but that does not mean 2 Cat5 (or Cat6) outputs. The splitter/transmitter has ONE Cat5/6 output. The reason they get away with saying "2 Remote" is that the receiver has 2 VGA outputs. So you can transmit to 1 place over Cat5/6 and from there 2 VGA cables as far as they can go. Full title is "StarTech.com VGA Video Extender over Cat5 ST121 Series - Up to 500 feet - 150m - VGA over Cat 5 Extender - 2 Local and 2 Remote".But for what it is it is great. Both boxes are metal, and feel very sturdy, They worked perfectly for the day I tested them, but I had to return cuz I need 2 Cat5/6 outputs.

Purchased this for use in my church for our overflow projector. My Cat5 run is approximately 200 feet long. I was hesitant to see how well this would work as my Cat5 cable runs right next to the power cables and multiple xlr cables. As soon as I plugged it in and saw the image it projected I was floored at how clear it was. I didn't even have to adjust anything on the receiving box. I would recommend these in a heartbeat for other applications and may look into a set for my own house. I am thrilled how well they work.

I have being using the Startech VGA extenders for event setup and installs for the last few years with great result. I have managed to push these 400 feet, with a cat5 coupler half-way along with acceptable results, which for the price is pretty impressive. Having the extra VGA outputs on each device is also useful, allowing you to connect a monitor to check the output of your VA source and/or connect to a second transmitter if you need to send to more sources. And at the receiver end you can connect two displays easily. Audio works well, and I have used the units to feed a laptop from a stage to video/audio control numerous times with no issues with the laptop detecting the device. The units really are very forgiving, even when run over cheap cat 5 or next to other wiring, BUT you have to check the signal boost switch on the receiver to make sure you get the best results. I have also used the transmitter with the two cat 5 outputs and the cat 5 repeater units successfully. The repeater unit is great when running two projectors as you can loop through from the first projector.These are definitely superior to unpowered passive extenders, which often require a shielded cat 5 to work correctly.

We are using the extender to connect a laptop to a projector over about 30 meters. It worked first time, the gain control allowed me to get a really good picture even on a large screen. I needed a totally reliable solution and this provides it.

I needed to run a second VGA monitor for a security system about 75ft from the main monitor. This extender uses standard CAT5 unshielded twisted pair network cabling (has to be a direct run between the two boxes rather than connected to your LAN). I can't tell the difference between the local and remote pictures so I'm very pleased. The only odd thing is a manual addendum that warns the user to ensure both units are grounded to avoid static buildup. I had no easy way to ground the boxes so I haven't done so (I'm hoping they are grounded via the VGA cables). I haven't seen any issues so far (been active for 2 weeks now). I'm very pleased with my purchase. I think StarTech make great, very useful, products.

Installazione estremamente facile.Il trasformatore fornito nella scatola si collega ad uno dei 2 componenti, a seconda della propria comodità, e quindi può alimentare la sorgente o la destinazione.E' sufficiente collegare i 2 componenti con un cavo di rete e ai cavi video VGA.Attivazione instantanea e visualizzazione dell'immagine sullo schermo remoto.

Just as described - works great. Quality of manufacture and the signals are both great. I use this to keep my laptop out of the way on the side of the room while the projector is in the center of the room. The boxes are connected by a CAT5 Ethernet cable that you supply up to 150M long. Requires AC power for both sending and receiving units. Also provides two VGA outputs at both the sending and receiving box. Great for a local monitor. No drivers, adjustments, or configuration - just plug it in! Works great!

This product is very easy to hookup and does exactly what it is described to do. Both the picture and sound are very good.I used this device to connect my laptop located in my office to my Large Flatscreen TV & Surround Sound system in my living. I use this along with my Logitech diNovo mouse/keyboard remote. So I can change inputs and watch streamed movies over the internet all from the comfort of my easy chair. I would recommend this device if you are looking to design a similar setup.
