Product Features
Technical Overview
This KVM extender delivers WUXGA video resolution up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz, maintaining crisp image quality for detailed monitoring and desktop applications. The video path supports EDID pass-through for proper display identification and includes a local DVI port loopback on the transmitter unit, allowing for on-site monitoring without interrupting the extended signal.
USB 2.0 extension is fully transparent, supporting both HID devices like keyboards and mice, as well as mass storage devices. A dedicated RS-232 serial port enables connection to legacy peripherals, industrial equipment, or console management interfaces. The integrated 3.5mm audio connection carries bi-directional speaker and microphone signals for complete AV extension.
Key Product Advantages
The KVXLC-200-R2 simplifies remote computer management by consolidating multiple signal types over a single, cost-effective CATx cable run. This reduces cable clutter, installation time, and infrastructure costs compared to deploying separate extenders for video, USB, and audio.
Extended Operational Range
Achieve reliable signal transmission up to 328 feet using readily available CAT5e or CAT6 cabling, providing flexibility in equipment placement for large rooms, across floors, or in distributed rack environments.
- Uses standard network cable
- No special fiber or coaxial required
- Simplifies long-distance runs
Comprehensive Peripheral Support
Beyond basic KVM, the extender handles USB 2.0 devices for data transfer, RS-232 serial for legacy equipment, and full-duplex audio, creating a complete remote workstation experience.
- Transparent USB for storage/HID
- Serial port for industrial gear
- Speaker and microphone audio
Local Monitoring Capability
The transmitter unit features a local DVI loopback port, allowing technicians to connect a monitor directly at the source computer for configuration, troubleshooting, or local display without disrupting the remote link.
Deployment / Use Cases
This KVM extender kit is ideal for environments where computer equipment must be located away from user workstations due to space, security, noise, or environmental constraints. The extended distance and multi-signal support enable clean, organized installations while maintaining full control and access.
In digital signage and video wall deployments, the extender allows media players or PCs to be housed in secure closets while content is displayed on remote monitors. For industrial control rooms, operators can interact with PLCs or SCADA systems located in harsh factory environments from a comfortable, climate-controlled console. In data centers, server administrators can access console ports and USB interfaces from a centralized KVM station without being directly at the rack.
Secure Server Access
Place servers in locked racks or separate rooms while providing full KVM, USB, and serial console access to administrative workstations located outside the secure zone.
Classroom & Training Labs
Instructor workstations can control demonstration computers located elsewhere in the room, reducing desk clutter and creating a cleaner presentation environment.
What's in the Box
The kit includes all necessary components for immediate deployment.

FAQ
What types of signals does this KVM extender transmit?
The KVXLC-200-R2 extends DVI-D digital video, USB 2.0 data, RS-232 serial communication, and bi-directional analog audio (speaker and microphone) over a single CAT5e or CAT6 cable. This allows you to remotely control a computer's display, use USB peripherals, connect serial devices, and handle audio from a distant workstation.
What is the maximum distance this extender supports?
This extender kit reliably operates at distances up to 328 feet (100 meters) when using standard CAT5e or CAT6 network cable. The distance is sufficient for most office layouts, data center aisles, or industrial environments where equipment needs to be separated from user work areas.
What video resolution and refresh rate does it support?
The extender supports WUXGA resolution up to 1920 x 1200 pixels at a 60 Hz refresh rate. It handles high-quality desktop video for detailed monitoring, CAD work, or digital signage content, and includes EDID pass-through to ensure displays are properly identified by the source computer.
Can I connect USB devices like flash drives or keyboards remotely?
Yes, the transparent USB 2.0 extension supports both HID devices such as keyboards and mice, and mass storage devices like flash drives or external hard drives. You can fully interact with USB peripherals from the remote workstation as if they were directly connected to the computer.
What is the local DVI loopback port used for?
The transmitter unit includes a local DVI loopback port that allows you to connect a monitor directly at the computer location. This enables local configuration, troubleshooting, or display monitoring without interrupting the extended video signal being sent to the remote receiver. It's useful for technicians performing maintenance at the source.
What cables and accessories are included in the kit?
The kit is complete for immediate use. It includes the transmitter and receiver units, two 5V/2A power supplies with US, EU, and UK plug adapters, one or two DVI-D cables (6 ft.), a USB Type A to B cable (6 ft.), a 3.5mm dual audio/mic cable (6 ft.), and two desk-mounting brackets with screws. No additional cables are required for basic setup.
