What customers say
Customer satisfaction with this DVI extender kit hinges entirely on adherence to recommended specifications. Users achieving success praise the clean wallplate design and the simplicity of plug and play operation, noting it offers great value for short distance extensions using quality Cat6 cable. However, many negative reviews arise when users exceed the optimal distance or use lower grade cabling. These instances frequently result in signal issues like flickering or drop out. The core takeaway is that performance is conditional. This kit delivers excellent results and value when expectations align with its passive technology limitations, making careful cable selection crucial for a positive experience.
