Tripp Lite P516-001 Vga Xvga Y Splitter Cable

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE P516-001 is a passive VGA and XVGA Y splitter cable designed to split a single video output signal into two simultaneous display feeds. Built for AV signal processing applications, this cable connects to a standard HD15 VGA source port and branches to two HD15 female connectors, allowing technicians and installers to drive two monitors or displays from one video card or source device. It is a straightforward passive solution with no external power required, suited for conference rooms, trade show setups, digital signage installations, and workstation deployments where a basic two-display split is needed.

The P516-001 is used in commercial and light-industrial AV installations where a single VGA or XVGA video source must feed two displays simultaneously. Typical applications include dual-monitor kiosks, presentation setups, and control room configurations. AV integrators, IT technicians, and low-voltage installers handle this type of deployment. Note that as a passive splitter, image quality and signal strength may degrade depending on cable run length and the output drive capability of the source device.

Installation Notes

Installation is handled by AV integrators or low-voltage technicians. Power down or sleep the source device before connecting or disconnecting the splitter to avoid signal disruption. Secure all HD15 connector thumbscrews finger-tight to maintain a stable signal connection. As a passive device, no additional wiring or power connections are required.
