7.4 Dualhead KVM- Switch
From one console (2x monitor, keyboard and mouse), you can remotely control up to 3 CPUs.
The distances between the CPU and CATX DVI-D Switch and between CATX DVI-D
Switch and console may amount in each case to up to 140m.
The switching between the CPUs can be carried out from the attached keyboard, push-button
at the device, or over the serial interface.
You can cascade CATX DVI-D KVM- Switches in two stages for all applications allowing
up to 9 dualhead CPUs to be addressed.
In addition to the DVI- signals and USB for keyboard/mouse, bi-directional stereo-audio +
serial (RS232/V24) can be transferred by the choice of appropriate Local/ Remote Units.
