SERVSWITCH™ BRAND CAT5 KVM/SERIAL/AUDIO EXTENDER
•
Serial Device:
Standard asynchronous RS-232 devices, including serial mice
and trackballs, that operate at up to 19,200 bps and don’t require any control
signals other than RTS, CTS, DSR, and DTR. (The Extender is transparent to
data format and to all data rates up to 19,200 bps. It passes the control signals
through.)
•
Audio Device:
Just about any standard PC sound card or consumer audio
device that doesn’t transmit or receive signals at voltages above line level
(5 volts peak to peak) should be compatible with the Extender.
3.2 Key Features
The KVM/Serial/Audio Extender has a number of useful features which
contribute to the transparent remote operation of your PC. Some of the more
important ones are:
•
Distance up to 300 m (1000 ft.)
Operate your PC from almost anywhere in the same building.
•
Fully adjustable video equalization
Compensates for the loss of image quality caused by the signal passing through
such a long run of cable.
•
Fully buffered signals
Remote operation of the PC is consistently smooth and transparent.
•
Intelligent PS/2 keyboard and mouse emulation
With this, the PC boots and operates correctly under most circumstances, and
you can freely detach and reconnect the keyboard and mouse as necessary
(the Extender automatically initializes the keyboard and mouse as soon as it
detects that you’ve reattached them).
•
Support for serial peripherals
Connect almost any RS-232 device that can communicate at 19,200 bps or less.
•
Support for audio devices
Connect almost any standard audio device or sound card.
•
Dual-Access model also supports a local station
With the Dual-Access model (ACU1028A), you can operate the PC either
locally or remotely (but not both at the same time).
