Extron VGA-A M-M MD/25 (part number 26-490-04) — a 25' (7.6 m) male-to-male VGA cable carrying analogue stereo audio in the same assembly.

At twenty-five feet the practical argument for a combined lead gets stronger, not weaker: two separate runs of that length are two sets of terminations to label, dress and troubleshoot. Extron pairs its MHRVGA cable, terminated in molded 15-pin HD male connectors, with a stereo mini plug audio lead at each end. The pigtails are cut to 24 inches at one end and 8 inches at the other so the source side has slack to reach a headphone jack while the equipment side stays tight to the panel.

Key Capabilities

• Carries computer video, analogue stereo audio and ID bit signals in one 25' (7.6 m) assembly
• Pin 9 +5 VDC and the ID bits travel end to end when the graphics card meets VESA DDC version 3
• Molded 15-pin HD male connectors plus 3.5 mm stereo mini plugs
• Audio lead measures 24 inches on one end and 8 inches on the other
• VGA shell tied to ground for ESD protection
• Injection-molded body with an overall foil shield for EMI isolation

Where It Is Used

Divisible meeting rooms, lecture theatres where the lectern and the rack are on opposite walls, courtrooms with a presentation position away from the equipment, and training suites that need programme audio to follow the picture.
