Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The product does what it advertises and does it pretty well. No special drivers. I installed this product in 4 conference rooms to 42" 1080p Monitors wall mounted across the room from the source computer. In each situation, running new VGA cables would have been very difficult and not practical. One room required a mirrored display on two monitors.
I used the existing Network wiring and connected the signal from the outlet closest to the computer to the outlet closest to the monitor using the patch panel in the Server Room, so in some cases I was sending the signal from one end of the building to the other in order to get across the room.
At a distance of 80 to 100 Cat5 cable feet, the picture was perfect. At 150 to 200 cable feet, the picture was near perfect with small adjustment to the Gain and EQ on the receiving unit.
No drivers are required, just adjust the video properties as you would with any computer monitor. Both the sending and receiving unit require an electrical outlet. I tested it with several laptops, even some older ones with limited video resolution. All worked.
One sending unit failed after a few days, and Tripp Lite's warranty replacement department exceeded my expectations. I've seen the same item with a different brand name, I imagine it would work the same, but I would go with Tripp Lite based on their excellent customer service.
