Product Features
Technical Overview
The CE600 operates on analog KVM technology, using two Cat5e cables: one for primary audio/video transmission and a second for HDCP, RS-232, and microphone signals. This dual-cable approach ensures stable, high-quality signal integrity over the full 60-meter range.
It features manual compensation controls that allow technicians to adjust signal strength dynamically, counteracting attenuation over long distances. Built-in 8KV/15KV ESD protection safeguards connected equipment from electrostatic discharge damage.

Deployment / Use Cases
The CE600 is ideal for environments where computers or KVM switches need to be physically separated from user consoles. It enables secure, centralized access to sensitive equipment while keeping operators in a comfortable, controlled workspace.
Common applications include server room and data center management, where technicians can monitor and control rack-mounted servers from a dedicated console area. It also suits industrial control rooms, broadcasting facilities, and laboratory settings where equipment must be isolated due to environmental factors like heat, noise, or contamination risk.
Data Center Remote Access
Extend console access from server racks to network operation centers or technician workstations, improving operational efficiency and reducing time spent in noisy, restricted areas.
Industrial Serial Device Integration
Connect to serial terminals, touchscreens, barcode scanners, or other RS-232 devices remotely, enabling centralized control of legacy industrial equipment over long distances.
What's in the Box
The package includes all necessary components for immediate deployment.
