StarTech VGABNCMF1 VGA to 5 BNC Monitor Cable
Overview
The StarTech VGABNCMF1 is a 1-foot adapter cable designed to bridge the gap between VGA video outputs and BNC coaxial inputs. This cable is essential for integrating older VGA-equipped surveillance DVRs or PCs with BNC-only monitors or matrix switchers. Its short length minimizes signal degradation and cable clutter in tight rack or console environments. The 28 AWG construction ensures a reliable connection for analog video signals.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with any device featuring a standard 15-pin High Density D-Sub (VGA) output and any system requiring 5 BNC coaxial connectors for video input. It is commonly used to connect VGA-out surveillance DVRs, older PCs, or graphics cards to BNC-input monitors, projectors, or video distribution amplifiers.
Installation Notes
The cable features nickel-plated connectors for improved durability and signal conductivity. The PVC jacket is CMG rated, suitable for use in wall cavities where fire safety codes apply. Ensure both the VGA and BNC connectors are securely seated to maintain optimal signal quality.
