Is there any hardware that will allow me to do this or any other way of doing it bearing in mind budget is an issue?

I have 1 pc running a powerpoint presentation in a continuous loop. I have 4 or 5 tft monitors I want to display this presentation on BUT the problem is the tft's are varying lengths away from the machine from 10 metres to 200 metres.

How can i send the video signal to all the monitors?
Will the signal travel over a 200m cable and can i even get a monitor cable that long or do i need something to amplify the signal etc??

cheers
 
Can you give me an idea of what kind of equipment i would need to do this over cat5. any links would be much appreciated
 
I don't think Overclockers do them, but what you need are video extenders. You might need to go to a more specialized company.

Its going to be very hard for me to post links as most of them would be classed as competitors.
