Overview
The CE-700 is a USB (Universal Serial Bus) based KVM
Extender that allows access to a computer system from a remote
USB console (USB keyboard, monitor, and USB mouse).
Because it allows access to a computer system from a remote
console, the CE-700 is perfect for use in any type of installation
where you need to place the console where it is conveniently
accessible,but you wantthesystemequipmenttoreside in asafe
location - away from the dust and dirt of the factory floor, or the
harsh environmental influence of a constructionsite, for example.
The CE-700 is also useful for control and security purposes,
where you can have the system unit in a secure area at the same
time that you put the console in the most convenient location for
user access.
The CE-700 improves on previous designs by: 1) using
inexpensive Cat 5 cable (the kind commonly used in Ethernet
networks), instead of bulkier, more expensive, standard cables,
for a much neater, more convenient, more reliable data transfer
connection; 2) it is able to sense the distance to the system and
automatically adjusts the gain accordingly; and 3) it features a
custom ASIC to ensure the utmost in reliability and compatibility.
Setup is as easy as can be - simply connect the computer system
box and local console to the Local CE-700 Module; run the Cat 5
cable to the Remote CE-700 Module (up to 150 meters away);
and plug the remote console into the Remote Module.
Note: You can control numerous remote systems from a single
console by combining the CE-700 with a KVM switch.
