Recommendation
1 Use only certified premium high-speed HDMI cables
that have been tested to support the performance
standard you require.
Use VGA cables with all pins in their connectors fully
populated and wired.
[N/A]
Use a USB extender if the distance between the
computer and the display is greater than 16' (5 m). For
more information, see USB extenders on page 19.
USB 2.0 cables support Hi-Speed (480 Mbps), whether
connected to a USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 receptacle. For
SuperSpeed (5 Gbps), connect a USB 3.0 cable to a
USB 3.0 receptacle.
SMART supports only installations that use directly
connected video and USB cables, AC-powered
extenders, or USB extenders purchased from SMART.
You might be able to use higher-grade cables that are
longer than specified. If you have problems with such a
cable or an extender of any type, test the connection
with a shorter cable before contacting SMART Support.
