Pre-Installation
Before you install the two pieces of the CAT5 DVI KVM Extender,
you might consider the following:
•
The Cat5 UTP Ethernet cable lengths between the

•
In case of need to extend the Cat5 UTP Ethernet cable
lengths, install a Gigabit Ethernet Switch instead of Fast
Ethernet Switch to avoid the signal degradation.

A good quality Cat5 UTP Ethernet cable provides better
quality of video transmission.
