NTI XTENDEX Extenders

INTRODUCTION

The XTENDEX Series CAT5 Extender (XTENDEX) is designed to enable one CPU to be controlled by two users, one local and
one remote. Extended components may include a standard monitor (or touchscreen monitor when RS232 is supported), PS/2
keyboard, PS/2 mouse, microphone, and speakers, The remote user can be located as much as 1000 feet away from a PS/2
CPU via Category 5/5e/6 unshielded twisted-pair cable. The local user will be located near the CPU.
The XTENDEX Series Extender is extremely simple to install and has been thoroughly tested to insure reliable performance.
Through the use of Category 5 cable it is possible to economically increase the flexibility of a computer system. Here are some of
the features and ways this can benefit any workplace:
• Allows the placement of computer peripherals (monitor, keyboard, and mouse) in a location where
only these parts are needed without having the CPU there too, taking up valuable space
• Allows a PS/2 CPU to be accessed by both a local and remote user (up to 1000 feet away)
• Compatible with XGA, VGA, and SVGA systems
• Provides crisp and clear resolution up to 1920 x 1200 @ 1000 feet (see page 15 for more details)
• Compatible with all NTI switches and splitters, enabling the joining of products to create a system that
satisfies all networking needs
• Video quality adjustment, for varying lengths of cable, is automatic (see page 12) providing optimum image quality
• Audio frequency response is 20Hz to 20Khz, + 1dB (models with audio support only)
• Digital transmission of audio signals reduces any loss in quality (models with audio support only)
• Built-in surge protection
