3.0 out of 5 stars More ghosts, February 7, 2008

I was trying to split my vga output to a monitor and a projector (via a 50 ft cable). I had the same experience with ghost images on my monitor as one of the previous reviewers. I'm guessing this splitter isn't designed to work with long cables. I ordered a 2-Port UXGA Video Splitter Extender (Cables To Go - 29550) which works much better, although it was somewhat more expensive.

Workes fine, I used it to split my VGA display of my HP Media Center PC to my HDTV that has a VGA input this works great gives me a bigger screen to watch some of the recorded TV from the PC.

Not much to it just a Y connector so not much to go wrong and as always more than happy with ording via Amazon, not a Dud order yet and I order lots of stuff, mostly tools, books, DVD's.

I use this to have a projected image and a monitor for use in my classroom. However, when I want to work at the computer, I disconnect the projector because of the ghost image on the monitor. In general, though, it serves the purpose for which I intended.
