You might want to look at a couple of connectors that I saw in a cybergeek
cataloge, you plug one connector into your VGA out port and the other
connector into your monitor and connect the two with cat 5 cable.
I gave away my last cataloge so I can not tell you part# or price, but take
a look at www.cyberguys.com if it sounds like something you might be looking
for.

Anyone know how many of the 15 pins/wires of a PC VGA monitor cable are
actually active and which pins numbers they are???

I'm considering running a cable for an auxilliary nav station PC monitor,
and will need to make the cable run without the end connector attached. If

I
can away with using use a thinner cable (implying fewer active wires

needed)
it be a big help.

Thanks,
Len.
