Overview


The KVM CAT5 Extender is designed to control the PC, Server or KVM Switch up to 500 feet away from your Keyboard, Mouse and VGA monitor. The Transmitter is to synthesize the signals of PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse and VGA monitor for being easily transmitted to a long distance over popular Ethernet CAT5 cable. The receiver is to take the synthetic signals and return it back to PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse and VGA monitor respectively.


KVM CAT5 extender is a good solution for those noisy server room environment where is unsuitable for people to work for a long time, besides, it facilitates effective management on dispersive computers through one dedicated central control room, demo room, meeting room, or at your desktop.  By using the same existing network cabling to transfer local console signal to remote side, this device can be used with popular CAT5 UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable, STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cable, or enhanced cables like CAT5e/CAT6.


KVM CAT5 extender allows you to move your console, i.e. keyboard, mouse, and VGA monitor, to a suitable place for centralized control conveniently through KVM switch. You just need to install a pair of extender, the transmitter and receiver, into local side and remote side respectively. It also saves your cable layout and installation cost.
