Extended Local Port (Dominion KX2-832 and KX2-864 Models Only)
What is the Extended Local port?
The Dominion KX2-832 and KX2-864 feature an extended local port.
The Dominion KX II eight user models have a Standard Local port, plus a
new extended local port that extends the local port, via Cat5 cable,
beyond the rack to a control room, another point in the data center or to
a Paragon II switch.
Is a user station required for the Extended Local port?
Yes, the following devices can function as the “user station” for the
Extended Local port: Paragon II EUST, Paragon II UST, and the Cat5
Reach URKVMG device. In addition, the Extended Local port can be
connected via Cat5 cable to a server port on a Paragon II switch. This
configuration can be used to consolidate the local ports of many
KX2-8xxx devices to a single switch.
How far can the user station be from the Dominion KX II?
The distance is 200' to 1000', but varies according to the type of user
station, the video resolution, cable type and quality.
Is a CIM required?
No CIM is required. Just connect a Cat5 cable.
Must I use the Extended Local port?
No, the Extended Local port is an optional feature and is disabled by
default. Use the Local Port Settings page to enable it. You can also
disable the standard local port if you are not going to use it for added
security.
