1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the USB KVM Extender over Cat.5.

This KVM extender allows you to extend the computer’s video and USB keyboard/mouse signal.

Therefore, you now have a high quality and durability extension solution to control your system up to

200 meters away from your computer or KVM. With the built-in video and keyboard/mouse signal

enhancement, you can gain the best video resolution quality. Additional software is not required. This

product delivers perfect performance and high value to satisfy your needs.

The USB KVM Extender over Cat.5 comprises a local unit (transmitter) and a remote unit (receiver).

The local unit is connected directly to the computer (or a KVM switch system) using the supplied cables.

The user console (keyboard, mouse and monitor) is attached to the remote unit.

The remote and local units extend the keyboard, mouse and video signal along the Cat5/5e/6 cable.

Moreover, the local unit offers dual access, enabling the connection of a second user console close to

the computer.
