Frequently Asked Questions - VGAEXTX2 KanexPro
How do I connect the KanexPro VGAEXTX2 extender?
Connect your VGA source to the input port on the transmitter. Connect the transmitter and receiver with a Cat5e/6 cable. Then connect the receiver’s VGA output to your display. Plug in the included 5V DC power adapters to both units.
What type of cable should I use for the VGAEXTX2?
For reliable long-distance transmission, use shielded Cat5e or Cat6 twisted pair cable with RJ45 connectors. Shielded cable helps prevent electromagnetic interference and ensures stable video output.
Can I extend the signal beyond 300 meters?
The maximum rated recommended distance is 300 meters (984 feet). Going beyond may result in signal degradation. For longer runs, consider adding a network switch or a signal repeater between units.
Does the VGAEXTX2 support audio transmission?
Yes, the extender supports stereo audio via 3.5mm audio jacks on both the transmitter and receiver. You will need an audio cable to connect your source and speaker, as audio is not embedded in the VGA signal.
What do the LED indicators on the VGAEXTX2 mean?
There are two LEDs: Power LED illuminates when the unit is powered on. Signal LED lights up when a valid video signal is detected. If the signal LED is blinking or off, check the cable connection and resolution settings.
Why is there no video output at the receiver?
First verify that both units have power adapters connected. Ensure the Cat cable is securely plugged in and not damaged. Also confirm that the source device is outputting a supported resolution (up to 1920x1200). Try rebooting or reconnecting the VGA cable.
How do I set the EDID for my display?
The VGAEXTX2 features EDID pass-through to automatically read the display’s EDID. If you need to override, connect the transmitter to the display first, then power on. For manual settings, refer to the user manual for DIP-switch configurations if present.
Can I mount the VGAEXTX2 to a wall or under a desk?
Yes, the metal housings include mounting holes on the bottom. Use standard M3 screws (not included) to secure the units to a flat surface. Ensure proper ventilation and avoid covering the vents.
Is the VGAEXTX2 hot-swappable?
The extender supports hot-swapping of the display or source while the units are powered. However, we recommend connecting all cables securely before applying power to prevent intermittent signal loss.
How should I clean and maintain the VGAEXTX2?
Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the exterior. Avoid using water, chemical cleaners, or abrasive materials. Regularly check all cable connections and keep the vents free of dust. Do not attempt to open the unit; contact KanexPro support for service.
