* To extend the operating distance from your TV or VCR you will need to purchase an A/V extension cable

(sold separately) which are available at most electronics stores.

Note : We do not recommend extending the cable length past 330 Feet/ 100 metres with a single cable run to avoid loss of signal.

Multiple cable sections connected to make up one cable length will drastically reduce the video signal run distance.
