Description

Vention VGA Ferrite Core Cable

The Vention VGA (3+6) Male to Male Cable is a 5-metre VGA cable that carries an analog video signal between a VGA output and a VGA monitor, projector, or display. The 3+6 conductor configuration — three individually shielded coaxial conductors for the RGB video channels plus six wires for sync and control signals — is the complete wiring specification for a full-featured VGA cable, ensuring accurate colour reproduction, stable sync, and reliable monitor detection. At 5 metres, ferrite cores at both ends are more than a convenience — they are a practical necessity, as a cable of this length is almost certain to run alongside power cables, cable trunking, and other interference sources in real-world installations. This length suits permanent and semi-permanent AV installations, ceiling-drop projector runs, boardroom and classroom setups, and any configuration where source and display are separated by a meaningful physical distance.
