monster081 0 Posted February 7, 2014 Good morning! My DVR has HDMI, VGA and Spot outputs, I will use VGA for the first monitor that will be next to it, but I want a second monitor in the kitchen, this monitor is my old PC monitor with only VGA in. I will run Coax to the kitchen from the DVR location, I can terminate the coax with BNC and then hook up the bnc-to-rca adapter, but then I would need to convert the RCA to VGA. I'm looking online and it looks that "bnc to VGA" and RCA to VGA" adapters are only $2... but BNC or RCA to VGA are usually more expensive, at least around $20, and its not just an extension its like a little converter box, why is this? well It would be nice to get a BNC to VGA and eliminate the RCA part, whats a good adapter or converter to buy? Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Securame 0 Posted February 7, 2014 I'm sure you have already searched, but what you are looking for is something like the following: $20 is a good price. Keep in mind that your DVR video quality on the BNC output will be far worse than that of the VGA output; since it is just a monitor in the kitchen, I guess that won't be a problem.

jeromephone 6 Posted February 8, 2014 why not use a 1 in 2 out powered vga splitter? you wont lose quality and extra long vga cords are pretty cheap online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
