hi

I want to connect a monitor to my PC. The distance between monitor and
CPU is 25 Ft.

Can i directly connect monitor to PC by using 25 ft VGA cable or i will
require any signal ampliciation device?

Can anyone tell me what is the maximum recomanded length for VGA cable
(or monitor data cable ) which connects the monitor to VGA card
directly?

Thanks in advance .

At this distance it should be all right, as long as you use a single
one-piece cable. Do not use shorter length cables spliced together, the
impedance mismatch at the connections will cause ghosting.

Good Luck
