    Does anyone have a link or know how to make your own cables to send a VGA signal over cat 5? We have a plasma tv that we want to use for laptop presentations and we need cables about 75 ft long to accomplish this. I know you can buy equipment($200 - $500) but we can do it ourselves if there are plans out there.

    So your looking for a VGA to Ethernet cable? It would seem more logical to use a VGA to Component cable, especially for a plasma tv. But I could be wrong.
