This Video Splitter is a signal booster and splitter that is used to take video input from a single source and direct it to eight video outputs for monitors using analog signals. The signal boost obtained by using the GVS94 1x4 VGA Splitter allows you to not only split the signal but to extend the distance so that you can send the signal to about 215 feet away. This is why IOGEAR"s video splitters are the best choice for allowing you to carry and split the video signal to more that one display with the same quality as the original signal.
