User Manual
FAQ
What type of video interface does this KVM extender transmitter support?
This transmitter features a DVI-I video interface that supports resolutions up to 2048 x 1152. DVI-I combines both digital and analog video signals, providing compatibility with a wide range of monitors and displays commonly used in professional IT environments.
What is the maximum operating distance for this KVM extender?
The ACX1MT-VDHID-2S supports a maximum operating distance of 32808.40 feet (10,000,000 mm) when used with appropriate CATx cabling. This extended distance capability allows for flexible deployment in large facilities where computer equipment needs to be physically separated from user workstations.
How many computers can this transmitter support simultaneously?
This transmitter is designed to support a single computer. It provides dedicated connectivity for one computer system, extending both video output through the DVI-I interface and peripheral control through the USB HID ports to a remote user workstation.
What type of USB support does this transmitter provide?
The transmitter supports USB HID (Human Interface Device) protocol, which is specifically designed for keyboards, mice, and other input devices. This ensures reliable peripheral control over extended distances without requiring specialized USB drivers or software.
What cabling is required for this KVM extender transmitter?
This transmitter uses two standard CATx cables for signal transmission. CATx refers to Category-rated twisted pair cables such as CAT5e, CAT6, or CAT6a, which are commonly available in network infrastructure. The dual-cable design helps maintain signal integrity over the extended operating distance.
Is this product TAA compliant?
Yes, the ACX1MT-VDHID-2S is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant. This compliance makes it suitable for government contracts and procurement by organizations that require products meeting specific regulatory standards for origin and manufacturing practices.
