Product identity
The ATEN VS1208T is an 8-port A/V splitter that sends one VGA and stereo audio source to a local display plus eight remote displays over Cat 5e cable. It supports 1920x1200 resolution at 60Hz and extends signals up to 300 m. The metal case is rack-mountable and includes ESD protection.
Installation checks
Verify the source provides a HDB-15 VGA output and a mini audio jack for the combined input. Each remote location requires a compatible receiver such as the VE170 and a solid Cat 5e run within the 300 m limit. A 5.3 V DC power adapter is included for the transmitter unit.
Suitability
This unit suits installers who need to distribute one analogue video and audio feed to nine screens in classrooms, retail or control rooms. It does not suit buyers who need digital HDMI or DisplayPort inputs, higher than 1920x1200 resolution, or a pure fibre extension beyond the copper distance limit.

Questions about this item
What cables and accessories come with the VS1208T, and what must I buy separately?
The box includes the splitter, a power adapter, a rack-mount kit, four foot pads, a grounding wire and a user guide. You must purchase Cat 5e cables and VE170 receivers separately for each remote display.
Should I choose this 8-port model or a smaller splitter?
Choose the VS1208T when you need one local plus eight remote VGA/audio displays over Cat 5e cable up to 300 m. A smaller unit suits fewer destinations.
What does the 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz rating mean once installed?
Each connected display can show up to 1920 x 1200 resolution at 60 Hz refresh rate over the full 300 m Cat 5e link, provided the source and VE170 receivers also support that mode.
