Says "Discontinued"... This one is similar, but available: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121560 They should behave the same, though. > i need to know if the DP ports can be a vga outputs with active dp --> vga? Yes, they can, with the proper adapter. Like these, only we've found. We have tested with 6 1920x1080/60p VGA outputs simultaneously. MiniDP - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003HC85D2/ref=ox_ya_os_product DP - http://www.amazon.com/Accell-UltraAV-B101B-003B-Display-Adapter/dp/B003HC85D2/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1345219671&sr=1-1 > how many vga outputs i can use? With that card? 4 over active DisplayPort->VGA-adapter + 1 over DVI with passive DVI->VGA adapter. > i can use dvi and vga? Yes. As long as all outputs are at same resolution and refresh-rate. > i have some projectors located more than 20 meters. Your options, choosing VGA: - VGA-cable copper - Cat5-VGA extender DVI is to be preferred. > my resolution wil be 800x1280 I trust you mean 1280x800? Rotation is done in WATCHOUT. > and last question what is the longest dvi cable i can use(in meters)? This totally depends on resolution used. Lower res = longer cable possible. 1080p - With copper (and GOOD quality cable) - approx. 23 m 1080p - With Cat5 extenders ( of GOOD quality) - approx. 50-60m 1080p - With FibreOptic extenders ( of GOOD quality) - 50m up to km:s Testing and verifying is essential! You might need EDID-managers on all outputs, for a stable setup. > thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
