You can evaluate the quality of the connector by its brand name. Some reliable VGA connector brands are RS Pro, cable power, StarTech, and Matrox.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-_Length\"><\/span>2- Length<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Another important factor is the length which impacts the quality of video signals. Use cables having a short length to have fast video transmission. Moreover, the interference of signals can be minimized by protection.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-_Gold_Coated_Layers\"><\/span>3- Gold Coated Layers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The conductivity of the VGA connector can be increased by coating its pins with gold color. The gold-coated VGA pin makes the data signal strong and with high transfer speed.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-_Protection\"><\/span>4- Protection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Protecting from signal interference is also a parameter of great consideration.
