ERLANGER, KY, May 24, 2007—The popular Cat.5 series in the TV One-task line has added the 1T-VGAST-CAT-XL. This unit can send both stereo audio, either from a PC or microphone, and a 1280x1024 VGA resolution image to a maximum distance of 1000 feet.

The unit consists of a transmitter that takes in the Stereo Audio and VGA signal and the receiver which outputs the same Stereo Audio and VGA Signal.
