It is designed for continuous operation in rack-mounted environments, with a compact form factor that optimizes space in standard server racks or network cabinets.
This section brings together practical product details such as Connectivity Technology, KVM Technology, Maximum Operating Distance, Maximum Video Resolution, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
The KE6900AR receiver eliminates the limitations of traditional direct-attach KVM switches by leveraging existing network cabling for signal extension. This approach reduces infrastructure costs and simplifies deployment in distributed IT environments.
Extended Reach
Transmit DVI video, USB, and audio signals up to 32808.40 ft over Cat5e/6/6a cable, enabling control rooms, classrooms, or digital signage networks from a centralized location.
- Uses standard network infrastructure
- No dedicated fiber required for most installations
Unified Peripheral Support
A single network connection carries video, bidirectional USB for keyboard/mouse, and audio streams, reducing cable clutter and installation complexity at the receiver site.
- 2 USB ports for HID devices
- 3.5mm audio jacks for headphone and microphone
Rack-Optimized Design
The 1U rack-mountable form factor with dimensions of 2.16" H x 6.76" W x 8.96" D integrates seamlessly into standard server racks, data centers, or network operation centers.
- Low 6.35W power draw
- Includes mounting hardware compatibility
Deployment / Use Cases
This receiver is typically deployed alongside its corresponding transmitter to create a point-to-point KVM extension link. Common applications include extending a workstation from a server room to an operator console, controlling a media playback PC from a broadcast booth, or managing digital signage content from a central IT office.
In educational settings, it allows instructors to control a presentation PC from anywhere in a lecture hall. For security and surveillance, it enables monitoring station operators to access video management servers located in secure, distant equipment rooms. The rack-mount design makes it ideal for permanent installations in data centers where equipment is centralized but management needs to occur from a separate, climate-controlled room.
