What is the maximum cable length supported by VGA?
The maximum supported length of a VGA cable depends on several factors, including the quality of the cable, the strength of the signal, and the resolution. Generally speaking: For VGA cables in standard quality, the maximum supported distance is about 50 feet (about 15 meters) at 640x480 resolution. At higher resolutions (such as 1024x768 or higher), the signal is easily attenuated, and the recommended maximum length is usually no more than 25-30 feet (about 7.5-9 meters). Why is there a length limit? How can we extend the length? Let’s explore this in more detail below. ...
