Overview The Tripp Lite P512-006 is a VGA monitor cable designed to connect devices using the HD15 interface, supporting resolutions up to 640 x 480. At six feet (1.83 meters) long, it provides ample length to link desktop towers, laptop docks, or KVM switches to monitors or projectors without excess cable clutter or strain. This cable is ideal for setups that rely on legacy VGA connections, such as point-of-sale systems, industrial equipment, or budget-conscious classrooms. Key features Gold-plated connectors with copper contacts ensure consistent signal transfer and reduce corrosion over time. Foil shielding minimizes electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, preserving image clarity on VGA displays. Molded connectors include integrated strain relief to withstand frequent plugging, unplugging, and bending without damage. RoHS compliant construction supports environmentally responsible use in schools, offices, and IT environments. Six-foot length balances reach and manageability, preventing cable tangling or excess slack behind equipment. Key specs Length: 6 feet (1.83 meters) Connector type: HD15 male to male Maximum resolution supported: 640 x 480 Shielding: Foil shield to reduce EMI and RFI Connector plating: Gold-plated with copper contacts Compliance: RoHS certified Connectivity and compatibility This VGA cable is compatible with any device featuring a standard HD15 VGA port, including older monitors, projectors, KVM switches, and legacy computing equipment. It works well in environments where digital connections are not available or necessary, providing a reliable analog video link for basic display needs. Ideal uses and environments The Tripp Lite P512-006 fits well in settings that require stable VGA connections without high-resolution demands. It is a strong choice for extending the life of older monitors at home, wiring classrooms with cost-effective projectors, or connecting diagnostic and industrial equipment on factory floors. Its durable design and interference shielding make it suitable for daily use in professional and educational environments.
