AI-generated summary
If you’re trying to push a video signal from a room source to a distant display, the ATEN VE600A is a pretty sensible “just make it work” option—especially at around £132.95 ex‑VAT. ATEN tends to be reliable with the basics (stable signal handling and sensible setup), and extenders are one of those B2B purchases where you really don’t want to spend time troubleshooting latency, dropouts, or weird handshakes. For meeting rooms, classrooms, and training spaces where you want a clean, dependable link without getting fancy, it fits.
That said, I wouldn’t buy this if your environment is demanding or unpredictable—think lots of interference, long runs with questionable cabling, or multiple displays where you need more advanced routing/controls. Also, this category of extender isn’t a “future-proof” hub; it’s a straightforward point-to-point solution. If your goal is simply to get AV to the right screen with minimal fuss, it’s good value. If you’re building something more complex or you’re unsure about run length and cable quality, you’ll be better off checking compatibility details before spending.
