Wirelss VGA sender

[s8n]

Is there any such thing?

I need to send VGA signal wirelessly across rooms.

Anyone know of any kit that can?

Its a very high bandwidth signal, I very much doubt anything exists to transmit at anything like the quality you would need. I'd love to be proved wrong, I'm interested in such things myself.

There are television tx units operating at 2.4GHz, but you're only talking about 700x500 or thereabouts.

Looks like I'm gonna CAT5 the house, and use VGA over CAT5.

That's a 2.4GHz TV Tx unit, the type Tom mentioned - going to be very low res for computer signals, at best you'll get PAL res (720x576).

Ah i gotcha, sorry me trying to be clever, it never works!

We use the 2.4GHz links for work, so the director doesn't need to be physically connected to the camera to look at the footage. The range is usually quite good, but reception is poor, and no way are they advanced enough to cope with anything higher than VGA.
