The VLX Series has the ability to go the distance. While regular CAT 5e will go 100m (330ft), CAT 6 and 6A can go much further. Below we have tested the following cabling from West Penn and the results of the testing with 4K video. Please note if using a different brand cable when exceeding the industry standard 100m (330ft) we highly recommend to verify the results first prior to installation as not all cables perform the same.
