What is the maximum length of cable for a DVI and VGA?
DVI Using copper cable it would appear that the limits are approximately 1600×1200@60Hz to one meter and 1024×768@60Hz to 9 meters with appropriate signal strength from the graphics adapter. [repeater may be required for longer lengths and there are “Fiber-Optic/electrical-to-light-to-electrical cables available that permit lengths to 100’s of meters–see below] DVI-D Copper Cables These cables are designed to carry digital-only signals from a graphics card to a display. If your requirement is interfacing two digital only devices, then you should use a DVI-D cable. Our cables are configured for single or dual link operation, and use super high resolution (24-gauge wire) cables, while most consumer-grade DVI cables use smaller, 28-gauge wire. This limits consumer-grade cables to lower resolutions and distances of less than 5 meters. The maximum recommended resolution is listed with each cable length, however all cable lengths support up to 1920×1200 resolution at 60Hz with the use of th
