Converge A/V by Startech.com introduces a new
line of products to help you simplify and lower your
costs when implementing digital signage solutions.
The UTPEA series offers VGA and Audio over
Cat5, as well the ability to easily expand for larger
digital signage rollouts. If you have a PC or media
player ready to narrowcast messages to your target
audience, simply connect one of our VGA over Cat5
extenders.
The newest line of VGA and Audio over Cat5
extenders from Converge A/V offer what you need
for now and the exibility to add more displays in
the future! The UTPEA series offers 4 and 8 Port
VGA and Audio extenders/splitters that connect to
multiple displays from a single source (PC / Media
Player). The VGA video and accompanying audio
signals are sent to remote units (STUTPEALR, see
reverse) over standard Category 5 UTP cable (CAT
5e recommended) at distances of up to 300m / 950ft
away from the source signal. Each remote unit then
converts and separates the VGA and audio signals
for presentation on the intended displays and audio
devices.
This versatile product line also offers simple
expansion using the STUTPEA4X Line Splitter/
Repeater (see reverse), allowing you to turn the
4 port broadcaster (ST124UTPEA) into a 16 port
solution and the 8 port broadcaster (ST128UTPEA)
into a 32 port broadcaster.

Questions to consider before purchasing a VGA over Cat5 distribution system:
1. Resolution and signal quality at long distances?
The UTPEA series can support a resolution of 1024x768 at maximum distance up to 300m / 950ft and higher
resolutions at lower distances.
2. Looking for long range extension but don’t have the budget to be using networked or IP
based solutions?
CAT 5 extenders are a stand-alone, point-to-point content distribution system and do not require any other
equipment aside from a PC/Media Player and the displays to deliver content to your target audience.
3. Are your displays on different floors or different rooms in a building?
It is far easier to run CAT 5 cabling than it is VGA Cables, through walls and to different levels in buildings.
CAT 5 cables can be terminated on site, whereas VGA cables can not.
4. Are any of your displays located further than 50m / 150ft away?
If any displays are further than 50m / 150ft away it is recommended to use a CAT5 extension system. VGA cables
can be costly and lack the capability to deliver the quality needed for most applications.
