Cable Requirements
The cable interconnected between
Local unit
and
Remote unit
normally used is Category 5(CAT5) terminated with RJ45 connectors.
It’s easy to get them from the local stores or call your dealers for help.
Besides, CAT5e or CAT6 are applicable to the
KVM Extender
. This
CAT5 is not provided with the standard package mainly because it is
subject to the different length you may required. In this case, the
length of cable you used should be less than 150m. Otherwise, the
poor result especially for video resolution may occur over longer
distance beyond the limit.
Cat5 Cable
The
KVM Extender
needs a piece of unshielded twisted pair(UTP)
cable up to a maximum length of 150 meters.
The cable must be wired in compliance with the EIA/TIA 568B
industry standard as shown below.
