Some time ago ( a year??) there were some postings concerning
lengthening the cable of the monochrome VR260 monitor on a VAXstation.
I cant seem to successfully do this without getting a degraded video
signal. I need to lengthen the cable by about 15 feet, and have
made an extension cable with a shielded 15 conductor cable to a
male/female DB15 connector. Does anyone know if this can be
done? Do I need to use special cable for the video signals, and if
so, what pins on the DB15 have the video/sync signals. Do I need
any special cable? I'm currently using Belden 9541 which is a
15 conductor, 24 AWG with a foil shield.
Any help on this will be appreciated.
Thanks,
