Maximum Length: 16' with a standard cable, Up to 50' with a high quality cable. VGA is an analog signal and so as distance increases the quality will decrease. A lot of factors can determine the maximum cable length, but for low resolutions (up to 800x600) you can reach 100 feet and beyond without too much trouble. For mid-range resolutions of 1280x1024/1024x768 you can typically reach somewhere between 50 to 100 feet.
Typically, the relative luminance is normalized so that the reference white (say, magnesium oxide) has a tristimulus value of Y=100. Since the reflectance of magnesium oxide (MgO) relative to the perfect reflecting diffuser is 97.5%, V=10 corresponds to Y=100/97.5%â102.6 if MgO is used as the reference. Observe that the lightness is 50% for a luminance of around 18% relative to the reference white.
