DVI-D CATX/FIBER KVM-EXTENDER

Welcome to the DVI-D CATx/Fiber KVM-

Extender Family!

Thank you for purchasing a DVI-D CATx/Fiber KVM-Extender! We appreciate your

business, and we think you’ll appreciate the many ways that your enhanced RGB Graphic

system will save you money, time, and effort.

That’s because our DVI-D CATx/Fiber KVM-Extender is all about breaking away from the

traditional model of attaching a new display to DVI graphic source. Using the DVI-D

CATx/Fiber KVM-Extender, you can remotely locate monitor, keyboard and mouse up to

140m (@ CATx) away from your CPU. Singlemode fibers allow up to 10km!

Wherever long distances are required, e.g. airports, industrial plants, call- centres or in

distributed computer centres, the DVI-D CATx/Fiber KVM-Extender is the best way, to solve

all problems in remotely locating your console. 2 families with 4 different types are available:

Quad-Head devices for USB HID or USB 2.0 transparent – CATx, Multimode, Singlemode

and CWDM.

This manual will tell you all about your new DVI-D CATx/Fiber KVM-Extender, including

how to install, operate, and troubleshoot it. For an introduction to the Extender, see Chapter

2. The Extender product codes covered in this manual are:

Safety Precautions and Installation Guidelines

To ensure reliable and safe long-term operation, please note the following installation

guidelines:

•Do not use CATx-devices to link between buildings – please use fiber devices.

•Only use in dry, indoor environments.

•If the building has 3-phase AC power, try to ensure that equipment connected to the

Local and Remote units is on the same phase.

•Try not to route a CATx link cable alongside power cables.

•The Remote unit, Local unit and any power supplies can get warm. Do not locate them

in an enclosed space without any airflow.

•Do not place a power supply directly on top of a unit.

•Do not obstruct a unit’s ventilation existing holes.

To safeguard against personal injury and avoid possible

damage to equipment or property, please observe the

following:

•Only use power supplies originally supplied with the

product or manufacturer-approved replacements. Do not

attempt to dismantle or repair any power supply. Do not

use a power supply if it appears to be defective or has a

damaged case.

•Connect all power supplies to grounded outlets. In each

case, ensure that the ground connection is maintained

OVERVIEW

2. Overview

2.1 Introduction

A CATx/Fiber KVM Extender is mainly used, to extend the maximum distance between

a CPU and his Keyboard / Monitor / Mouse considerably. In addition they are beneficial

in installations in electromagnetic hazardous environments (EMI). Normal Keyboard-/

Monitor-/ Mouse extender cables (and Extender using traditional cables) cannot go so far

and EMI interferences may reduce the maximum distance and/or reliability. Using a

DVI-D CATx Extender system, these limitations are past. Retain your CPU in a secure

rack cabinet or data center while accessing from a 140m remotely located place.

A basic KVM extension system comprises a Local unit and a Remote unit. The Local unit

connects directly to the computer (or a KVM switch system) using the supplied cable(s). The

user console (keyboard, mouse and monitor) attaches to the Remote unit. The Remote and

Local units communicate video and data information along the interconnecting cables. Local

units offer dual access, allowing the connection of a second monitor close to the computer.

2.2 Glossary

The following terms are used in this guide:

CATx Any Category 5, 5e, 6 or higher cable, solid wires type AWG24.

Although flexible AWG27/7 cables can be used too, the lengths of

flexible cables count twice in the calculation of the total distance.

Fiber 9µ Singlemode or 50µ/62,5µ Multimode fiber cable.

KVM Keyboard, Video and Mouse.

Console Keyboard, Mouse and Monitor

Dual Access A system allowing connection of Local and Remote user consoles.

Single-Head An extender system that supports one monitor + Keyboard/Mouse

Quad-Head An extender system that supports four monitors + Keyboard/Mouse

DVI Digital Video standard, installed by Digital Display Working Group

(www.ddwg.org) R, G, B, CLOCK in a data stream with up to

3x 1,6 Gbit/sec. Signals are TMDS Level.

PSU The desktop power supply connected to the Local/Remote unit.

HID Human Interface Devices are units, which are used for human access

to the CPU. They are a USB-device class of its own (e.g. Memory

Devices etc.). Besides of keyboard and mouse also touchscreen, light

pen, fingerprint sensor, graphic tablets etc. are HID devices
