Features and Benefits
The LongView and LongView Companion Keyboard/Video/Mouse (KVM)
extenders allow you to extend the distance between your computer and your
VGA monitor, PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse, stereo speakers, microphone and
serial port device. All of these signals can be extended up to 500 feet (152 meters)
using a single inexpensive and commonly available Category 5 Unshielded
Twisted Pair (UTP) cable - the type used in most Local Area Networks.
LongView consists of a transmitter placed near the computer and a receiver
placed near the remote user’s monitor. Both the transmitter and receiver are
powered using wall-mount power supplies. The LongView Companion allows
for a second workstation to be located near the computer for convenient
system maintenance. Versions are available with and without audio
capabilities (speakers and microphone).
LongView and LongView Companion are simple to install. Avocent’s
AutoTuning capability provides automatic compensation for different cable
lengths, video resolutions and serial COM port data rates.
Access sharing
The LongView Companion models allow two users to share the use of a single
computer. Both users can see the computer’s video, but only one can enter
data at any given moment. A local user is next to the connected computer
while an extended user can be up to 500 feet away.
Space saving
LongView and LongView Companion let you keep your peripherals where you
need them and locate your system unit in a climate-controlled, dust/chemical-
free setting. Moving your system unit away from your desk and work area
frees up valuable space for other uses.
Easy installation
There are no jumpers to install or switches to set for cable length or COM port
data rates. No software installation or configuration of any kind is required.
The LongView and LongView Companion connect to your computer just like
other peripherals.
High resolution video
The LongView and LongView Companion support SVGA resolutions up to
1600x1200. See Appendix C for further details.

Serial port
The LongView and LongView Companion can extend a computer’s serial COM
port to the desktop for use with devices such as touchscreens, modems or serial
printers. Both models auto-configure for any COM data rate up to 19.2 Kbps.
Audio capabilities
Extend your computer’s speaker output and microphone input to a remote
workstation. Fully bidirectional (full-duplex) stereo audio is supported.
Versions of the LongView product family without audio capabilities are also
available, if desired.
Data center flexibility
For access to multiple computers, use your LongView or LongView
Companion in conjunction with an Avocent KVM switch. By using these
products in combination, you can control and operate all of your data center’s
servers either locally or remotely from the computer lab down the hall.
AutoBoot technology
The AutoBoot feature in the LongView and LongView Companion prevents
attached computers from locking up when there is no keyboard or mouse
attached during boot-up. This same feature allows a user to unplug and
reconnect a mouse at the transmitter or receiver end without having to reboot.
Privacy feature
Privacy options in the LongView Companion allow the user to blank the
inactive user’s screen when content sensitive work is in progress.
Security
Protect your system unit, software and sensitive/valuable data from
unauthorized activities or losses. LongView and LongView Companion can
serve effectively as an anti-theft device by allowing you to place the system
unit in a secure area, while providing keyboard, mouse, monitor, audio and
serial device access to those who need it.
FLASH upgradable
The LongView Companion’s FLASH upgrade feature allows you to update
your LongView firmware and keep it current with the latest upgrades
from Avocent. For more information on FLASH upgrading your LongView
Companion, please visit the Avocent web site.
