OVERVIEW
Just when you thought our extenders couldn’t get any
better, our ServSwitch™Brand Mini CATx KVM Extender with
Automatic Skew Compensation takes things to the next level.
Although small in size, this kit has more features than many
full-sized extenders.
Support extension applications up to 1000 feet
over CATx copper.
The Local CPU to Remote Station kit includes a local
(transmitter) unit and remote (receiver) unit. The kit links your
remote control station to a single local CPU. You can connect
both units up to 1000 feet (304.8 m) of CAT5, CAT5e, or
CAT6 cable.
Versatile for many extension needs.
Use the extender in a variety of ways:
• Move your CPU to a secure location, safe from
unauthorized users.
• Relocate your CPU to a clean environment to keep it
away from dirt, dust, and industrial hazards.
• Place your CPU a few feet from your control station to
increase desktop space.
• Connect to the user port of a ServSwitch and place a user
up to 1000 feet (304.8 m) from the switch.
• Connect to the CPU port of a ServSwitch to place a CPU
up to 1000 feet (304.8 m) from the switch.
