Overview
The CE624 USB DVI Dual View HDBaseT 2.0 KVM Extender / CE924 USB
DisplayPort Dual View HDBaseT 2.0 KVM Extender is a Dual DVI (CE624)
/ DisplayPort (CE924) and USB Extender with HDBaseT™ technology. The
CE624 / CE924 can extend two DVI (CE624) / DisplayPort (CE924) displays
and USB 2.0 signals up to 300 ft (100 m) from the source using a single Cat 5e/
6/6a cable. The CE624 / CE924 is equipped with USB connectors which allow
you to extend any USB device between the units. The USB functionality
provides not only peripheral sharing but also provides support for touch panel
control and file transfer. The CE624 / CE924 is ideal for transportation centers,
medical facilities, and shopping malls, industrial kiosks and for syncing files
and folders between portable and desktop computers.
The CE624 / CE924 allows access to a computer from a remote console (USB
keyboard, monitor, and mouse). Because it allows access to a computer from a
remote console, the CE624 / CE924 is perfect for use in any type of installation
where you need to place the console where it is conveniently accessible, but
you want the equipment to reside in a safe location – away from the dust and
dirt of the factory floor, or the harsh environmental influence of a construction
site. This allows users to deploy system equipment over large distances.
The CE624 / CE924 is 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. This is ideal for managing
highly confidential data systems.
The CE624 / CE924 improves on previous designs by: 1) using inexpensive
Cat 5e/6acable instead of bulkier, more expensive, standard DVI / DisplayPort
cables, for a much neater, more convenient, and reliable connection; 2)
featuring a dual DVI (CE624) / DisplayPort (CE924) ports; and 3) HDBaseT
2.0 technology.
HDBaseT 2.0 technologies include: Long Reach mode to extend the KVM
installation up to 150 meters @1080p; Signal detection LED to indicate the
HDBaseT™ connection status on the remote unit; and transmission of
uncompressed 2 channel PCM digital audio.
Setup is as easy as can be – simply connect the computer system box; run the
Cat 5e/6/6a cable up to 100 meters to the Remote Unit; and plug the remote
console into the Remote Unit.
