1. Specifications
1.1 Interfaces
1.1.1 DVI-D Single Link
The video interface supports the DVI-D protocol. All signals that comply with
DVI-D single-link standard can be transmitted. This includes, for example, monitor
resolutions such as 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz, Full HD (1080p), or 2K HD (up to 2048
x 1152). Data rate is limited to 165 MPixel/s.
1.1.2 USB HID
Devices with USB HID interface support a maximum of two devices with
USB HID protocol. Each USB HID port provides a maximum current of 100 mA.
Keyboard
The DKM FX or FXC is compatible with most USB keyboards. Certain keyboards
with additional functions may require custom firmware to operate. Keyboards with
an integral USB Hub (Mac
®
keyboards, for example) are also supported, but you
cannot use more than two active USB HID devices on the DVI and USB HID cards.
Mouse
Compatible with most 2-button, 3-button, and scroll mice.
Other USB HID devices
The proprietary USB emulation also supports certain other USB HID devices, such
as specific touchscreens, graphics tablets, bar-code scanners, or special keyboards.
Support cannot be guaranteed, however, for every USB HID device.
NOTE: Only two USB HID devices are supported concurrently, such as keyboard
and mouse or keyboard and touchscreen. A hub is allowed, but it does not
increase the number of HID devices allowed.
To support other USB “non-HID” devices, such as scanners, Web cams or memory
devices, choose our devices with transparent USB support.
1.1.3 RJ-45 (Network)
CATx device communication requires a 1000BASE-T connection. Pin the cable
according to EIA/TIA-568-B (1000BASE-T) standard with RJ-45 connectors at both
ends. All four wire pairs are used in both directions. The cabling is suitable for
full-duplex operation. For the cable connection to a source (computer, CPU), use a
cross-pinned network cable.
