Key Product Advantages
The KVXLC-100-R2 simplifies remote workstation setups by extending multiple signal types over a single CATx cable, reducing clutter and installation complexity. Its support for high-resolution video and transparent USB extension ensures a seamless user experience, whether for local monitoring or remote operation.
Extended Reach with Standard Cabling
Leverage existing CAT5e/6 infrastructure to achieve reliable KVM extension up to 330 feet, eliminating the need for expensive dedicated cabling or signal degradation over long distances.
Comprehensive Peripheral Support
Beyond basic KVM, this extender handles USB 2.0 devices, serial equipment, and audio signals, making it suitable for control systems, digital signage players, and specialized workstations.
Local Monitoring Capability
The transmitter unit includes a local DVI port loopback, allowing on-site video monitoring without interrupting the remote extension link—ideal for troubleshooting or dual-display setups.
Deployment / Use Cases
This KVM extender is ideal for environments where computer equipment must be located away from user workstations due to space, security, or environmental constraints. Its ability to extend high-resolution video and full peripheral control makes it a practical solution for server rooms, industrial control panels, and broadcast setups.
Common applications include extending a workstation to a secure server closet, controlling a media player from a front-of-house location in digital signage deployments, or providing remote access to test equipment in labs. The kit’s included desk mount kits facilitate neat installation in office or rack environments, supporting both temporary and permanent setups.
Secure Server Room Access
Place noisy or heat-generating servers in a dedicated closet while maintaining full control from a quiet, adjacent workspace, with video clarity up to 1920x1200.
Digital Signage and Control Rooms
Remotely manage media players or control systems from a central console, with reliable extension over CATx cabling already installed in ceilings or walls.
